Visit Yangjiang Xilai Ancient Street: A Fusion of Ancient and Modern Yangjiang's Xilai Ancient Street is like a long historical scroll that unfolds slowly, with a deep ancient charm that has been precipitated over the years, and a fresh modern style that has been integrated into the tide of the times, especially the charming night view, which makes people feel like they are stepping into a dreamlike realm. When the lights are on, the outline of the ancient street is outlined by the warm yellow lights, like a giant beast waking up from its slumber. The stone road underfoot reflects a simple luster under the light, and every step seems to be stepping on the node of history. The old houses on the street, with red lanterns hanging under the flying eaves, sway gently in the wind, and the light shines through the wooden carved windows, casting a mottled light and shadow, like the kiss marks of time, imprinting the prosperity and vicissitudes of the past. Walking along the riverbank, the lights on both sides of the river are reflected on the river, shimmering like stars falling into the water, flickering and swaying with the flow of the water. Boats slowly pass by, the light strips decorated on the hulls and the reflections in the water complement each other, dragging out long light strips, like a flowing galaxy. Occasionally, the lights of the fishermen flicker in the distance, and the faint light adds a touch of fireworks to the quiet night. In the alleys of the ancient street, modern cafes stand side by side with traditional handicraft workshops. The melodious music from the cafes and the clanging sounds from the handicraft workshops intertwine to form a wonderful harmony. Young couples sit under the open-air coffee seats, whispering and enjoying the romantic night; while the elderly sit together, playing chess or reminiscing about the past, with satisfied smiles on their faces. The stalls in the night market display various characteristic items that integrate ancient and modern elements. There are traditional sachets embroidered with modern cartoon patterns, as well as creative postcards depicting the ancient scenery of Yangjiang. Children hold sugar paintings and shuttle excitedly among the crowd, and the crystal-clear sugar paintings shine with tempting light under the lights, like sweet dreams. The night view of Xilai Ancient Street is a dialogue between history and modernity, a dance between ancient charm and modern style. Here, time seems to be frozen, yet it seems to be flowing rapidly, making people intoxicated and unwilling to wake up, just wanting to quietly savor this unique charm, and deeply imprint this beautiful picture in their hearts, becoming a brilliant star that never fades in their memories.
