Finally, it's my turn, speeding all the way to Jiangmen for the weekend!
Finally, it's my turn, speeding all the way to Jiangmen for the weekend!🌟 The 33rd District Street in Jiangmen is the birthplace of the Jiangmen city area, featuring Lingnan-style architecture from the 80s and 90s, presenting a touch of Hong Kong style. It's suitable for taking photos in retro outfits, and it's also the location for the popular TV series 'Racing'. Come and see the path taken by Brother Qiang!
🎈Address: 33rd District Street, Pengjiang District, Jiangmen
🚃Transport: Drive to 33rd District or Qiming Li
🚄High-speed rail: Take the train to Jiangmen East Station, then take a car there
It's perfect for a weekend trip around Pengjiang District!
💥The entire street is lined with arcade buildings, an old street with a sense of the times, where the ancient architecture is well preserved. Walking here is like traveling back to the end of the last century, and the photo effects are definitely great!
🥁Then you can walk towards Qiming Li from the 33rd District, about 10 minutes away. It's recommended to walk there, as you'll pass by old houses with a sense of the times that you can't see in the city. Qiming Li is a new hotspot in Jiangmen, with a collection of cultural and creative shops, coffee shops, taverns, restaurants, and local products. Taking photos here is also very nice!
Food Check-in
✅There are many Brother Qiang's Pig's Trotter Noodles along the street. I went to the original TV series location 'Xu Ji Noodle House' which has some signs at the entrance. The environment is the same, and I personally think the taste is okay!
✅The place where Gao Qi Qiang and Gao Qi Sheng chat, Overseas Chinese Town Chenpi Specialty Coffee, with tangerine peel, jasmine, and coffee is worth a try
✅There are also many other places worth checking in that Brother Qiang has visited
Qiang Sheng's Small Spirit Shop—Gao Qi Sheng's mobile phone shop
Geng Xing Electronics—Gao Qi Qiang's TV
Crossroads—Where An Xin and Gao Qi Qiang meet
Wan Hong Audio & Video—Gao Qi Qiang dealing with a crisis alone
💫In the 33rd District Street, you can fully enjoy the slow time🕐 and feel the unique charm of Jiangmen. If you also like the retro style and exploring niche attractions🎊, then come and have a look!

WanderingDesires
Just got back from Jiangmen! Take my advice! Really, don't go!
I saw some bloggers advising against it online, but I still went with the filter of 'The Wild Goose Lake' in mind, and I regret it so much!
The wind was at level four that day, and it was drizzling. I only wore a thin jacket, and I was freezing. After getting off the bus, you'll hear a lot of motorcyclists shouting in Cantonese. It's only 3km to Thirty-Three Market Street, but they were charging way too much, especially since it was raining at the time. Then we decided to wait for the bus; it takes 36 minutes for 4 stops, and we waited quite a while without seeing the driver start the bus. So we went to sit next to the driver and booked a 'Handheld Reservation Bus', which costs 5 yuan per person no matter where you go, and that was relatively cost-effective.
After arriving at Thirty-Three Market, the ancient buildings inside were well preserved, and walking on the street felt like traveling back to the end of the last century. If I had a camera, the photos would have been amazing~ Qiming Li has a lot of special shops, graffiti, and festive couplets. There are a few flower walls that are quite photogenic, so if you want to take pictures, you can go there.
Life-size standees of Big Brother and Big Sister and Qiang Brother's Pig Trotter Noodles are everywhere, in every street and alley. We went to eat at a Lai Fen restaurant that was featured on CCTV; I ordered the lotus root and pork rib Lai Fen. The soup was rich, but I didn't like the peanut sauce.
Because it was so boring, we braved the strong wind and rode bicycles to Rainbow Village. I have to say, the transportation is really inconvenient! The shared bicycles have fixed positions, and there are only so many squares; you have to get to the point to return them, which is different from Guangzhou. It took a lot of pushing and shoving before we could return them.
We originally planned to go back at 8 pm, but there was nowhere else to go, and the other attractions were quite far apart. We stayed in a coffee shop for a long time and felt we really couldn't stay any longer, so we changed our tickets and took the train back to Guangzhou at around 5 pm.
In conclusion; when going out, you must check the weather, or else the experience will be greatly diminished. It's best to drive to Jiangmen, having a car will be much more convenient!

Listen to my advice! It's a win to visit Jiangmen during the off-season!
There are fewer people, beautiful scenery, and it's cost-effective! It's very comfortable!
It won't be too cold or too hot - the climate is pleasant!
I chose a weekend after the holiday to play in Jiangmen for 2 days
It was really fun, delicious, and great for shopping ahhh!

Come to Jiangmen for a wild ride|Tourism around Shenzhen
|Tourism around Shenzhen. Jiangmen Photography|The city set on fire by the wild ride.
This city is the famous 'Chinese Overseas Chinese Capital'
A historic street worth checking in.
This is Thirty-three Xuxi Street, also a popular check-in spot in the wild ride. It's hard to imagine that these old buildings have a history of 600 wonderful.
A city directly accessible by Shenzhen high-speed rail, suitable for weekend tours.

Weekend check-in at Jiangmen
Taking the path of Gao Qiqiang, get the road to wealth.
Jiangmen Qimingli Thirty-three Xu Street, the shooting location of 'Speeding'.
Checking in at this time is also considered off-peak travel, the streets are full of Qiangsheng Group and pig's foot noodles...
The retro arcade with a combination of Chinese and Western styles, the street has a sense of age, and the photos are very good!
Key point!! Amazing!!
Hidden in the Qingyu Li coffee shop 'Xu Ding Ren Jia', this coffee shop is a big surprise

A thrilling day, I was at Jiangmen Thirty-three Ruins Street
Jiangmen Thirty-three Ruins Street, the heat has passed, it seems cold and clear.
In the block, it feels like the 80s and 90s when you take pictures.
Standing there, watching the crowds, the traffic, and the ubiquitous drama photos, will indeed make you involuntarily put yourself into that era full of opportunities, and then generate an inexplicable excitement.
But what I love more is the worldly fireworks separated by a wall from the hustle and bustle, the various old-fashioned residences that are brilliant with a horn given by the mottled years, the skirts fluttering in the sun, the happy napping cats and dogs, the children chasing and playing happily, the neighbors chatting about their daily life, and the steaming snack stalls.
Having seen too many cities filled with monotonous reinforced concrete cold high-rise buildings, the plain and friendly fireworks that Jiangmen retains seem particularly precious.
It's a pity that only half a day is not enough to explore her soul.
It is both regret and concern.
I also checked in for everyone the special tangerine wish of the Vietnamese coffee shop, the limited Zhi Zhi Mandarina Pu'er light milk tea of the founding shop of Xicha, and the mung bean cake of the ruins street, all worth a try.
Of course, Jiangmen is not only Thirty-three Ruins Street, but also the beautiful and free East Lake Park.
It's very suitable for relaxing and breathing, you can sit and watch the sunrise and sunset with friends or parents. Jiangmen·Guangdong

Free check-in at the hot filming location! Jiangmen is indeed extraordinary
🌟Finally had the chance to visit the "unpopular" city of Jiangmen around Guangzhou, and I had to visit the Thirty-three Ruins Street, one of the old city's attractions, which was also the filming location of the popular TV series "Racing". Essentially, it's a row of arcade buildings, and it's quite comfortable to walk around.
👇Store Information:
Address📍: No. 148, Chang'an Road, Pengjiang District, Jiangmen City
Transportation🚇: Navigate🧭 to this location
Business hours⏰: All day
Tickets🎫: Free💰
Reasons for recommendation:
👉If you're new here, you definitely have to come. There are indeed traces of commercialization, such as the same pig's foot noodles scattered along the street, etc. However, the overall architectural style is still the same as it was in the past, and it has not been overly "decorated".
👉Walking around, a few hours are enough, and there are also many attractions around. Reserve half a day as usual, including eating, drinking, and playing. Also, the night view is pretty good. It's fine to walk, driving or taking a taxi is very inconvenient.

33 Huxu Street
Jiangmen Pengjiang Thirty-Three Market Street
As the historical and cultural district of Changdi, San Shisan Xu Street is the origin of Jiangmen City. It is not a specific street name, but a collective name for several historical streets such as Xuding Street, Dizhong Street, Lianping Road, Xingning Road, and Beijie. It is named after the 33 steps of the bluestone staircase at Shuibu Tou, and the end of the staircase is the old street of Xuding.
Different from other cultural ancient streets, San Shiqi Xu Street gives people a feeling of liveliness.
The winding alleys are not narrow, but the numerous shops, the extended goods, and the colorful sunlight make people feel warm, while the emergence of "Brother Qiang xxx" and various internet celebrities due to the filming of "Furious Speed" and their various staged poses in different locations, seamlessly connect the entire block with the complex old cables and modern wireless devices. The mottled arcade, the old factory street, the noisy crowd, all contribute to the extreme prosperity of the moment.
Enter the deep alley, the noise fades away.
The streets are deep and winding, with a width of about two meters in the wider areas and only enough space for one person to pass through in the narrower areas. The houses on both sides are typical Lingnan arcade buildings, made of green bricks with a pure beauty shown by the mottled walls that have not been covered in moss or algae due to the constant flow of pedestrians. About 30% of the houses have been abandoned and left in disrepair, with rusty locks indicating that the owners have been gone for a long time. The residential and commercial buildings in the alley are densely packed, reflecting the prosperity and population density of Lingnan in the past. The shops are not necessarily large, and the houses are not necessarily small, but they are intermingled, showing the convenience and ease of life for people in the past. Even a small two-story building was found in the dense housing, with the words "XX School" on the back wall of the roof. It is unclear whether it was a private school or a formal school, but the possibility of it being a private school is greater given the tight layout without even a courtyard.
Looking down from above, the old houses on Jiu Chang Street are marked with green and black mold, indicating their history. They also speak to you with their open roofs and long-abandoned desolation, expressing their sorrow.
In the old alley of the city, there are still elderly people walking alone, there are also occasional shouts from foreign businessmen, and there are also delivery guys rushing on their motorcycles.
33 Huxi Street stands alone in this modern kingdom of rapid high-tech development in the Pearl River Delta.
