The original arcade city of China is actually in Wuzhou

Having seen the southern characteristic buildings, arcades, in Guangzhou, Haikou, and Beihai, it was not until I came to Wuzhou that I realized that the real arcade city in China is Wuzhou. Here, there are 22 existing arcade streets and 560 arcade buildings, making it the city with the largest scale and the most preserved old buildings in our country, and it is more original and life-like than Guangzhou's Shangxiajiu and Beihai Old Street. When I strolled in Wuzhou in a drizzle, it felt particularly warm under the old arcades. Looking at the buildings, you can see the coexistence of delicacy and mottled, vitality and decay, feeling the ruthlessness of time and the vicissitudes of life.
