About Huangjueya Ancient Street
The present old street combines repaired Bayu houses with reconstructed historic buildings and continuing residential life. Sanmao’s former home, a small wooden house on the back street, gives the area a personal literary connection. The neighbouring Huangge Ancient Road explains the settlement’s position: this was a passage through the hills, not simply an isolated row of picturesque shops.
What to look for
- Sanmao’s former home: the restored wooden house associated with her early childhood.
- Bayu street houses and Huangge Ancient Road connection: a settlement shaped by mountain travel.
