1. Composition: Kuanzhai Lane, Chengdu
Kuanzhai Lane is a relatively large-scale ancient street left over from Chengdu, which, together with Daci Temple and Wenshuyuan, is called the protected block of three famous historical and cultural cities in Chengdu.
do you know the origin of Kuanzhai Lane? Moreover, this alley was once called Hutong. Kuanzhai Lane was built in the Qing Dynasty, and it is the only remaining two of the 33 Qing Dynasty soldiers' alleys in Chengdu. It belongs to a courtyard-style building. In the 57th year of Kangxi (1718), Junggar invaded Tibet.
after the Qing court sent 3,111 officers and men to quell the rebellion, more than 1,111 soldiers were chosen to stay in Chengdu forever and build the whole city, that is, the Shaocheng, which was designated as the Eight Banners military camp and the residence of their families, and was a forbidden area. Among them, the west entrance of the wide alley is a site with red flags, and the west entrance of the narrow alley is a red flag station.
At that time, the name was not Kuanzhai Lane, but Xingren Hutong and Taiping Hutong respectively. It was not until the early years of the Republic of China that this name with obvious northern style was replaced by "Kuanzhai Lane" and has been used ever since.
Enriching the Folk Customs in the North and South. Because the children of the Eight Banners live in idleness and pursue enjoyment, this area has become one of the cradles of leisure culture in Chengdu. Blue brick walls, quadrangles, high gatehouses and flowered skirts not only have the characteristics of southern Sichuan folk houses, but also have the connotation of northern folk culture.
With the deepening of the old city reconstruction movement in Chengdu, more and more old-fashioned buildings, hutongs and communities have been replaced by modern high-rise residential buildings and commercial buildings. However, "Kuanzhai Lane" has sprung up in the ruins of urban reconstruction. The original residents have opened teahouses and bars with local characteristics in the alleys, and more than a dozen houses have been squeezed on the streets less than 211 meters away. In these two alleys, the atmosphere of "Old Chengdu" is getting stronger and stronger, and quiet street life scenes such as covered bowls of tea and tofu pudding rice are still tenaciously reproduced here ... Teacher Lin Wenxun believes that Kuanzhai Lane is the last relic of the urban pattern of "a thousand years less cities" and the original architectural pattern of a hundred years in old Chengdu, and it is also the "orphan" of the northern hutong culture and architectural style in the south, and it is the most famous new "business card" and today's Chengdu. 2.

About Kuanzhai Lane's composition 411
Walking into the wide narrow alley, you have sung the ballad of old Sichuan ... "Humming songs, walking into your own memory, walking into the memory of Chengdu-Kuanzhai Lane.
It's like a dream, a dream made up of ancient, vicissitudes and primitive. It's beautiful and confusing, and it's chic and comfortable. It is hard to imagine that Chengdu, a city shrouded in prosperity, can still have the pure land of Kuanzhai Lane.
Kuanzhai Lane can reflect the truest Chengdu, and it is no exaggeration that Chengdu people are the most realistic. I used to sit under the banyan tree with a bowl of tea in my hand and a cigarette in my mouth, and talk about laughter throughout the alley. At this time, it was a scenery in Kuanzhai Lane.
Occasionally, children run from the other end of the alley to this end in groups. Oh, I'm afraid that's how the windmill came. They also shouted, "Strike while the iron is hot, strike while the iron is hot, Li, and send some scissors to my sister ..." The smoke circle on the old man's head next to him who was smoking was shouted straight. Listening to the sound of a jingle behind him, I subconsciously flashed aside. Sure enough, my neighbor's brother who had just played a friend sang "Boxwood Pole" and rode home on his bicycle with a smile.
At this time, the people who were drinking Gaiwancha couldn't help themselves, pointing fingers at the brother next door, and some even shouted at him, "Hey, Qiangwazi (a nickname for that brother) is back! What's up, that girl? Bring it back to us one day to see Thiol, and everyone will help you with your advice, ah! " After that, the people at the same table are still booing. "That is, bring it back to help you consult, haha." The elder brother only smiled and said, OK, OK, and waved his hand and walked away.
In a short time, peace was restored here, and sometimes there was a sound of knocking on wooden boards and colliding with metal. Old Sichuanese all knew that it was people who polished shoes and pulled out ear wax to pull business. Those people can find a lot of jobs here, because people who drink tea here will pay a few dollars to clean their shoes or take out their earwax when they are happy.
Those who remove earwax will wash around their ears first, and then put clean long tweezers into their ears. Those who are removed will close their eyes and enjoy the sunshine and the beauty of ear piercing. Occasionally, people will be surprised out of their own small world by a burst of pain. That's because the tweezers reach too far, and the person who is pulled out will scream "Ouch! Yo" and his eyebrows will wrinkle, but this is definitely not a torture for him, but a kind of enjoyment, which makes him happy physically and mentally.
These are just some sketches of the leisure life of the regulars in Kuanzhai Lane, and there are too many interesting things to be experienced by everyone. I'm afraid there are too many differences between Kuanzhai Lane now and before, and many modern elements have been added.
In the past, the concrete floor was not paved with stone tiles, and the walls were decorated with atmosphere, which recorded the story of old Chengdu. The surrounding houses also have wooden beams and white coats. After bidding farewell to the blue bricks, they still keep their style and record the vicissitudes of life here.
But besides the old teahouse, there are many restaurants, cafes and souvenir shops here. Hehe, everything has become wonderful. However, the leisure mood of Chengdu people is still undiminished, sitting there lazily, shouting at whom and laughing.
In previous years, the brother next door had pulled his wife and children to recall the good old life. From the smiles on their faces, we can see that Kuanzhai Lane now makes them very satisfied. He stepped into his old home and looked at it. Now it is a storefront. He is seven feet tall and his eyes are red. Kuanzhai Lane carries his memory and his happiness. Today's life started in Kuanzhai Lane. When I was a child, this was his world and his whole life.
Now that he has grown up, he has taken a step towards the world, and Kuanzhai Lane has joined him in stepping towards the world, opening the window that has been dusty for a long time, opening the door that has not been opened all the year round, blowing in the fresh wind, and telling the world that Chengdu, a leisure city, still has a simple and beautiful corner. Kuanzhai Lane has opened its doors to welcome visitors from all over the world, and he is eagerly looking forward to your visit.
I hope you will come and see it and see the antiquity here; Look at the fashion here; Look at the leisure here; Look at the beauty here. 4. Kuanzhai Lane's composition
When you come to Chengdu, one of the must-see spots is Kuanzhai Lane.
This is a very distinctive street, bearing a lot of Chengdu culture. My classmates and I went there at the weekend to feel the characteristics of this street.
When we arrived at the entrance of the street, we saw many people visiting here. Many people were holding tablets and mobile phones in their hands, taking photos in every corner. I also took my classmates with great interest and left a photo in front of an ancient sewing machine.
I must put this photo on my desk when it is developed. Then we'll go inside.
Kuanzhai Lane is divided into three parts. Wide alley, narrow alley and well alley.
The difference between a wide alley and a narrow alley lies in the width of the alley, while a well alley is characterized by its depth, and it takes a long way to get to the end. There are also shops, large and small, selling decorations, snacks and souvenirs. You really have everything.
My classmates and I ordered two maocai and Lianggao in a pork intestines rice noodle shop. They were really delicious. We played all morning, but we still didn't enjoy ourselves. I really hope we can come here again in the future. 5. Kuanzhai Lane's {short essay}
Planning to win for the protection of the soul —— A brief introduction to Kuanzhai Lane's protection mode. The Chengdu Kuanzhai Lane Historical and Cultural Reserve, which lasted for four years of restoration and protection, was opened to the public on June 4, 2118 (the third chinese heritage Day), and it took on the important task of the opening drama of Chengdu's tourism recovery after the 512 earthquake.
By July 11, it had received 1.2 million tourists, and within 1 months of opening, it had received more than 51 domestic delegations including National Cultural Heritage Administration, the secretary and district head of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, the Standing Committee of Fujian Provincial Committee, Chongqing, Anhui, Jiangsu, Guangzhou, Xiamen, Sichuan and Chengdu. At present, the status of protected areas as the leading products of Chengdu's urban tourism has been further consolidated, and a series of urban tourism route products from Kuanzhai Lane have gradually taken shape and been included in the key promotion routes of major travel agencies.
Basic information of protected areas The historical and cultural protection area in Kuanzhai Lane consists of three parallel old-fashioned streets, namely, Wide Alley, Narrow Alley and Jingxiang Alley, and the quadrangles between them. The planned control area is 479 mu, of which the core protection area is 118 mu.
this area is one of the three major historical and cultural protection areas in our city, which was listed in the Protection Plan of Chengdu Historical and Cultural City in 1981s. It is the last relic of the urban pattern of "a thousand years less cities" and the original architectural pattern of a hundred years in old Chengdu, and it is also the "orphan" of the hutong culture and architectural style in the north in the south.
The historical and cultural protection area in Kuanzhai Lane is planned, protected, constructed, invested and operated by Chengdu Cultural Tourism Development Group (hereinafter referred to as Wenlv Group) and the people of Qingyang District under its jurisdiction. Wenlv Group is a large state-owned enterprise directly under Chengdu Municipal Committee, which has unique advantages in the operation of cultural and tourism resources. Planning is the soul, protection is the foundation; The total investment in the restoration project of Kuanzhai Lane is more than 581 million yuan, and 45 courtyards have been restored, with a building area of more than 31,111 square meters. The underground parking lot covers more than 11,111 square meters and can park 281 cars.
in the whole project restoration process, we have always regarded building a creative industry project as the core of our work, and formulated the protection principle of "planning is the soul, protection is the foundation, falling down and rebuilding, and repairing the old as before" around the core. ■ Reasonable planning and scientific protection? Tsinghua University was hired as a professional organization for protection planning, architectural design and landscape design of protected areas.
To this end, Tsinghua University established the working organization of Kuanzhai Lane Historical and Cultural Protection Zone, and entrusted Tsinghua Andi Company to take charge of relevant work. At the beginning of the restoration design, detailed field measurement records were made, and each yard in the wide, narrow and well alley was divided into three levels of protective design according to the historical culture and architectural value contained in the building. In accordance with the principle of "repairing the old as before, falling down and rebuilding", we strive to preserve the ancient buildings as much as possible and restore the authenticity of historical buildings.
Therefore, the buildings in Kuanzhai Lane are different from the antique buildings in other places. The brick by brick and the pattern of each courtyard here are the restoration of history. ? The "Kuanzhai Lane Historical and Cultural Protection Area Expert Committee" was established. At the beginning of the project, experts and scholars from history, culture, art, architecture and archaeology were invited to set up an expert committee to guide the protection work.
■ project positioning, planning is the soul? Refine the cultural connotation of the project In order to give an accurate positioning to the project, the most famous experts in Chengdu's history, culture, folk customs, art and other aspects were invited to visit the aborigines living here, and cooperated with professional cultural communication companies to sort out the historical and cultural context of Kuanzhai Lane and tap the spiritual connotation of Kuanzhai Lane. * * * combed the cultural spirit of Kuanzhai Lane, and thought that Kuanzhai Lane kept the urban history and life memory of old Chengdu and contained the most important life spirit of Chengdu. Thus, the core connotation of Kuanzhai Lane is "Kuanzhai Lane, the most Chengdu", and the Chengdu life spirit of "Chengdu life specimen" has been embodied and continued in Kuanzhai Lane.
? Elaborating the project's individual format is not only a static protection and restoration for Kuanzhai Lane, but more importantly, it makes Kuanzhai Lane a growth space for traditional culture and life spirit, and an example of traditional spirit recovery and awakening. Therefore, we strive to find a successful business model that combines historical and cultural protection blocks with modern commerce, make a comprehensive business plan for Kuanzhai Lane, invite professional business planning institutions to make professional investigation and analysis of the project, and take the "Chengdu Life Spirit" as a clue to form a rich and cultural group.
Three alleys are defined as "wide alley old life", "narrow alley slow life" and "well alley new life". Chinese food, tea culture, traditional culture and folk customs are displayed in the wide alley, western food, simple meals, coffee, special catering and modern art are placed in the narrow alley, and bars, nightclubs and snack cities are placed in the well alley.
We try to endow the three alleys with different cultures through the different businesses they carry. In October, 2117, the investment promotion work in Kuanzhai Lane was started, and all the investment promotion tasks were completed in only four months by targeting and peer-to-peer communication.
Among them, the introduction of foreign capital or famous foreign brands accounts for 11% of the total investment projects. Among them, French-funded western restaurants, famous Starbucks coffee, and French royal chocolate brand Debao Jialai opened the first salon concept store in China District in the narrow alley. Gao Wenan, a famous Hong Kong interior designer, chose his fitness center "MY GYM", cafe "My coffee" and noodle restaurant "My noodle" in the narrow alley. After the earthquake, Wenlv Group signed a contract with Australia Select International Hotel and Resort Group.
