Gulangyu Island, Dongguan, explore the underground dam square of the literary and youth area

Dear friends who have left those memories here - "Xiaba Fang"

Well, this is a copywriting that takes a sentimental route.

Many people’s impression of Dongguan is that it was once the “factory of the world”, the smoke of gunfire in Humen, and the five-star hotels scattered throughout the city.

In fact, when you step out of such a box and initial impression, slowly approach it, and understand it, you will find that these statements are still biased and inaccurate.

The same is true for a city

"Xiaba Fang" is located in Wanjiang, Dongguan, with very convenient transportation. It is called Dongguan Xiaolijiang. Taking advantage of the weekend, I came to explore it today.

? Take Metro Line 2 from Dongguan - get off at Hongfu Road Station - take Didi directly - after passing "Shangba Fang", it will take about 15 minutes to go forward and cross a rainbow bridge to reach "Xiaba" "Fang" village entrance.

?The neon lights have already started to light up here. In fact, you can come earlier next time. The lower dam at dusk will definitely be super beautiful.

? I originally thought that this place was undoubtedly a bar street, with rock and roll music and people who came here to get drunk, which I always rejected. Later, I read some travel guides online, and now that I have seen it, I am glad that it was the right time to go today. The road sign at the entrance of the village is very eye-catching "Xiaba Fang". The entrance of the village is located relatively high, and you can see other shops in the distance.

?It’s less than 8 o’clock in the evening, and there is not a lot of customers. Every bar has resident singers singing. You can stand at the door or in the store to listen to a song. The store owner is very good at doing business. , will let you come in first to take a look, and will also tell you that you can go to their best viewing platform on the second or third floor to take pictures. It doesn’t matter whether you want to spend money or not.

? Many of the shops here are old houses that have been carefully renovated, and each shop is particularly exquisitely decorated. While there are not many people around, explore a few more places from the entrance of this alley.

? Most of the singers sang folk songs, or some popular light music, which was very intoxicating and relaxing. It made people feel like they wanted to travel to the end of the world with their swords.

The short house No. 38 is a Tibetan bar. This Tibetan-style courtyard is my favorite. It is quite unique. The bar is very big, and overall it looks like a renovated courtyard house in Beijing. The stairs are made of wood. I looked at the door of the store for a long time, but the boss, a girl, insisted on letting me enter the store to visit.

I asked: Can I go in and take pictures?

The boss smiled and narrowed his eyes: Yes, the photos on the second floor will look better, so you can take whatever you want!

This is really surprising. I don’t know whether the epidemic has affected business this year, or whether people really pay more attention to the service attitude in marketing. Anyway, you will have a good impression of this place because of the friendly attitude of the shop owner.

Another good thing is that the shopkeepers here will not make various recommendations or ask you to sit down and choose a drink just because you have arrived at their shop. Most of them will just say hello to you. After that, everyone will be busy, and it is up to you whether to stay or not.

After 9:30 pm, various bars began to slowly admit customers, and you could see many friends coming together.

I walked all over Xiabafang and spent about 2 hours exploring. Then I chose a bar with two singers on the third floor. In order to take pictures, I Went up to the second floor and chose a good location.

? I looked at the drink list and chose a mid-priced drink at 45 yuan/cup. I had dinner that night, so I didn’t order any other snacks. The prepared wine is indeed a special drink. Listening to folk songs is so relaxing.

? The service attitude of the store staff is very good. They will not express dissatisfaction with the guests because the drinks and snacks you order are too large or too small, nor will they increase the seat fee for seats in particularly good locations. No tips are required. So you can rest assured when you come here to spend money.

Conclusion

Xiabafang is a small charming street hidden in the busy city. It is a corner forgotten by the bustling city. Even if I don’t drink and have no stories, I will definitely come back next time. , look out the window at the old houses full of history, bring a camera to record the scenery I like.
