KRISTINA.

As a kind of porch-style architectural art, the arcade building has a long history. The old street in Haikou is a characteristic streetscape and one of the attractions that can not be visited in Haikou. Its oldest building, the four-storey building, was built in the Southern Song Dynasty and has a history of more than 600 years. Haikou Old Street is mainly distributed in the urban area of Deshengsha Road, Xinhua South Road, Zhongshan Road, Bo'ai Road and Jiefang Road. The earliest riding building was built in 1849, and the location is in the four-storey street, also called the inner street. The current Boai North Road is surrounded by nearly a hundred years of history and is full of Nanyang architectural style. Although it has been more than a hundred years, walking in the old streets of Haikou, you can still appreciate the beauty of street buildings. These buildings have a rich Eurasian mix and architectural style. They also have a rich architectural style, both traditional Chinese ancient architectural styles, imitations of Western architecture, and Nanyang culture. The architectural and decorative style is clearly influenced by the Indian and Arab architectural culture, giving the entire architectural and decorative style a unique and unique charm. The floor of the building is not too high, most of the two or three floors, some still retain the previous business name, but also showed a strong nostalgic atmosphere. So far, these old streets are still full of people coming and going. The arcade buildings still play the main commercial functions of the old streets of Haikou Old City, retaining a strong local life atmosphere. There are many old-fashioned food shops along the street shops, and the hot afternoons are just around the corner. Into a shop, order a bowl of local specialty drinks, suddenly refreshed, exhausted!
