Ancient Culture Street
Tianjin Ancient Culture Street is located outside the east gate of the northeastern corner of Nankai District and on the west bank of Haihe River. It is a commercial pedestrian street. It is now one of the ten scenic spots in Jinmen. As one of the ten scenic spots in Tianjin, Tianjin Ancient Culture Street has always adhered to the business characteristics of "Chinese flavor, Tianjin flavor, cultural flavor, and ancient flavor" and mainly sells cultural supplies. There are nearly a hundred shops in Ancient Culture Street. It was completed and opened on New Year's Day in 1986. Since ancient times, this area has been Tianjin's largest trade and New Year market. Every spring, Tianjin's grand imperial gathering - the auspicious birthday of the Empress - is held here, with performances such as stilts, dragon lanterns, land boats, and lion dances. In the newly built Ancient Culture Street, except for the archways at both ends and the theater in front of the palace, which are imitations of the large Qing-style buildings, the remaining nearly 100 houses are all imitations of small ancient folk buildings of the Qing Dynasty. The "Imperial Meeting" in Ancient Culture Street is also a well-known traditional event. "Huang Hui" was originally called "Empress Hui". According to legend, the 23rd day of the third lunar month is the birthday of the goddess of the sea in Thean Hou Temple. Starting from the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, the festival took place for four days before the birthday of the Goddess of the Sea. At this time, folk Dharma Drum Association, Da Le Association, Heling Association, Chongge Association, Zhongfan Association, Stilt Association, etc. perform various skills along the street, presenting a grand occasion. After the ancient culture street was restored, the "Imperial Meeting" was restored every year on March 23rd of the lunar calendar. On this day, performances such as dragon lanterns, stilts, land boats, yangko, Dharma drums, Chinese flags, lion dances and martial arts are the main performances. The streets are bustling and lively, becoming a grand event that enriches the cultural life of citizens. The ancient cultural street "connecting the markets" cannot be left out, although there are all kinds of handicrafts from all over the motherland and Tianjin. Among them, Yangliuqing paintings, "Clay Figurine Zhang" painted sculptures and "Kite Wei" kites with strong local characteristics of Tianjin are the most famous.
