Introduction to Ren Sidong

In the Korean era (1392- 19 10), Rensi Cave was a place with dense government and private houses. Since the late Japanese occupation of Korea, two declining classes in Rensidong have sold their possessions, so some antique shops have emerged here. Later, galleries and related shops appeared in Rensidong Antique Street, and Rensidong gradually became a cultural street for buying and selling cultural goods. Generally speaking, when we talk about Rensi Cave, we mean the area in front of Tagu Park, which runs from Anguo Cave roundabout through Zhonglu Second Street at Rensi Cave intersection. Rensi Cave is centered on the central street, and there are many hutongs scattered around it, which are numerous and dense, just like cobwebs. There are many famous Rensi caves hidden in the hutong.
