Feng Shui in Zaoer Lane, Ganzhou
Streets and alleys always have an indescribable magic for us, which can always draw our thoughts invisibly. Perhaps this feeling is because we have lived in the jungle of reinforced concrete for too long, going up and down between floors, going in and out of elevators, and being busy struggling for life. When we calmed down, we found it was dark again, and the day passed. Slowly, we miss living in the old street. Those days were simple and there were no complicated ideas.
Every city has an old street that people are very familiar with and can't help but want to approach. The old streets and alleys in Ganzhou are among the "36th Street and 72nd Lane". Streets and alleys can make people think a lot, and show the past scenes in our minds like a rewind movie.
