Renovating old factories into cultural and creative parks has become a current trend, with places as far away as Beijing’s 798 Art District and Hanyang Cultural and Creative Industrial Park, and as close as Ningbo’s Yunshang Valley No. 11 Street and Fishing Wheel Factory Alley, etc., all becoming hot spots.

Red check-in resort.

There is also such a cultural and creative park in the outer suburbs of Jiangbei District, Ningbo City. It was also renovated from an old factory area. It is full of rich literary and artistic atmosphere and becomes more and more beautiful. It is like a new Internet celebrity attraction.

This cultural and creative park is located in the northwest corner of Hongtang Street, Jiangbei District, Ningbo City, and was built by the Beijing 77 Cultural and Creative Team.

Because it is located at the bend of the Maojia River that runs through Hongtang, it is named Hongtang Bay.

The center of the park uses old railways and green carriages as cultural and creative elements, so it is also known as a train theme park.

When Hongtang Bay was first built, there were only one river, two railway tracks, a few carriages, a lawn and a few abandoned factory buildings. Now it has become a Yueliang County themed shopping street, Goose Egg Theater, Water Theater, Starlight Island,

It is a comprehensive cultural and creative park integrating Moon Island, Party Building Train, Hongtang Rubik's Cube, Lingbo Ribbon, Children's Dream and Spring Rose.

Hongtangwan Cultural and Creative Park has five entrances, located in four directions: east, west, north and south. Three of the entrances are bridges.

The bridge on the south side is called Gongyue Bridge. The bridge on the south side lies across the Maojia River. The bridge is tall and looks like a crescent moon, so it is named Gongyue Bridge.

Standing on Gongyue Bridge, you can see half of Hongtang Bay.

Gongyue Bridge is the main entrance to Hongtang Bay. To the south of the bridge is Hippo Square. To the north of the bridge is Moon County Theme Commercial Street. Turn left and go forward to the Children's Dream Lawn and Moon Island. After crossing the bridge, turn right to the Rail Garden.

The Rail Garden is located along the river, surrounded by cherry blossom trees. Two mottled railroad tracks are hidden under the cherry blossom trees.

When I came here to play, I happened to meet a young man and four children walking from the other end of the railway track. The morning light hit them, casting five light and shadows on the ground, like a painting.

At the corner of these two railway tracks is the Moon County themed shopping street, and at the end is the Hometown Party Building Train.

Moon County Theme Shopping Street is a dining street full of childhood fun and a place for cultural, creative and trendy entertainment.

Here you can find a variety of delicacies including fried chicken, beer, skewers, and fresh fruits, as well as cultural and creative workshops including art studios and animation.

To the north of Moon County is the train theme park, which also gathers many landscapes including Transformers, Water Stage, Shilipu Train Restaurant and Photography Studio.

When there is no epidemic, there is a pocket market in the theme park, which is especially lively at night. When the lanterns first come on, surrounding residents gather here and disperse late at night.

Nowadays, the train theme park night market has basically fallen silent, with only Shilipu Music Bar still holding on.

Although there were no customers, the staff in the bar still stood at the front desk seriously, warm bouquets were placed on the music seats, dynamic MTV was played on the projection TV, and the neon lights kept changing colors, as if the place was full of guests and friends.

There is an Aimeng Bridge to the north of the train theme, which is one of the entrances to the north. Opposite is Ali Field Farm.

Ahli Field Farm is also a children's paradise full of childlike fun. It was once prosperous, but now it has turned into a green wheat field, truly returning to the essence of a "farm".

To the west of Ahli Field Farm is the colorful countryside of Baoyunzhuang. The flowers here used to be as beautiful as a painting, but now they have become ordinary farmland.

There is also a bridge to the south of the colorful pastoral.

This bridge is an Internet celebrity suspension bridge. It not only has a high appearance, but also is a good viewing spot.

Here you can enjoy attractions such as the Hongtang Rubik's Cube, Lingbo Ribbon and Spring Rose. Especially at night, the neon lights are reflected in the Longwei River, which is particularly beautiful.
