BEIJING, July 8, 2022 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --
"The Wanshou Palace carries the nostalgia of Jiangxi people for centuries."
Wanshou Palace Historical Culture Block in Nanchang, built on the former site
of Tiezhu Wanshou Palace, is positioned as the No.1 Gan-Po culture block
(Gan-Po, the abbreviation of the Ganjiang River and the Poyang Lake, represents
Jiangxi Province). As one of the 10 key cultural projects of Nanchang, this
block retains the features of local residential dwellings to the greatest
extent, showcases the brilliant Jiangyou Culture, and reproduces the charm of
centuries-old Jiangxi, offering another cultural landmark for the province to
be better known.
Wanshou Palace Historical Culture Block is historically a bustling area
thriving on water transportation that mixes merchant group culture, Taoist,
architecture and street culture. It consists of three streets and five alleys,
i.e., Qiaobu Street, Qipan Street, Wanshougong Street, Hetong Alley, Cuxiang
Alley, Wanshougong Alley, Luobo Alley and Luoxiang Alley. It is the urban block
most representative of Nanchang's history, commerce, folk customs, street
culture, and ancient architectural style. The Tiezhu Wanshou Palace, located in
the eastern part of the block, originated from the Western Han to Jin
dynasties, thrived from the Sui to Song dynasties, and peaked in the Ming and
Qing dynasties.
Wanshou Palace Historical and Culture Block project is located in the core
business area in the old city of Nanchang and includes three components, i.e.,
historical residential buildings, commercial streets, and the Wanshou Palace
religious and cultural area. The project restores and retains three streets and
five alleys, typical of Jiangxi-style residential buildings of the late Qing
Dynasty. There are 123 buildings altogether, including 118 late-Qing
Jiangxi-style residential buildings, 45 of which are historical buildings, such
as Nanchang General Chamber of Commerce, Chizhi Hall, Yutai Salt House, and the
Former Residence of Luo Ying. The block's special commercial streets are
divided into six distinctive business areas, i.e., Fashion Street, Lifestyle
Domain, Local Delicacies, Cultural and Creative Bazaar, Jiangxi Gifts, and
Nanchang City Street. During the Spring Festival, 13 thematic exhibition halls
in the block will be open to the public, including Wanshou New Arrivals,
Wanshou Monthly, Lingxi Shrine, and Lingxi Post Office, and folk artists will
be invited to perform such crafts as folk calligraphy (huaniaozi), sugar
painting, straw weaving, dough figurine making, and paper cutting.
