Who is the fortune teller in Weng 'an West Street?

Yangshuo West Street is located in the center of Yangshuo County, Guilin City, not far from our hotel, within walking distance.

West Street is nearly one kilometer long, with marble pavement, winding serpentine streets, antique buildings and strong local characteristics. Gather all kinds of tourist souvenirs and snacks in the market. Its exotic night scenes are varied and full of amorous feelings. It is also a gathering place for artists. Qi Baishi, Xu Beihong, Zhang Daqian and Huang Dou, the four great kings of Chinese painting in the last century, once lingered here.

West Street, also known as Foreigners Street, has a history of 1000 years. Most residents in the street are local farmers. For a long time, they have maintained a semi-commercial and semi-agricultural state of "being a shop for the village, being able to do business and farming", which has made Xijie people form a dual character of being open-minded in the city and loyal in the village.

After the changes of the times, West Street is still a typical architectural scale of villages and towns in southern China, but it shows a humanistic landscape with international sentiment. The decoration styles of bars, restaurants, Internet cafes and arts and crafts calligraphy and painting shops here are mostly a combination of Chinese and western styles, with foreign language signs. Waiters in arts and crafts calligraphy and painting shops, restaurants and bars, ordinary residents and even old ladies selling fruits on the street can speak fluent English, which gives West Street a strong exotic color.

There are many beautiful small commodities in West Street, which attracted our attention. Let's choose separately. Some goods have a high premium, depending on whether you can bargain. If a local acquaintance happens to follow, make sure to bargain until you doubt your life. Later, I heard that in fact, many small commodities here are from Yiwu, Zhejiang.

Several colleagues, they took a fancy to a huge folding fan in a handicraft calligraphy shop. This folding fan is hung on the wall as an ornament when it is opened. It depicts the famous scenic spot Elephant Trunk Mountain in Guilin with freehand Chinese paintings, which is magnificent and artistic. Shopkeepers began to charge 60 yuan, and finally cut it to 8 yuan and took it away. Such a bargain broke through my imagination. Obviously, stores will not make money at a loss, which only shows that they have very high-quality purchase channels.

At the eastern end of West Street is an important port of Lijiang River-Lijiang Wharf, from which all the passengers swam ashore. In every corner of West Street, tourists of different colors are in groups of three or five, sitting around the street drinking beer, coffee and chatting happily. Visiting West Street, you will find many foreigners walking with you or sitting at the same table; There are backpackers who bury their heads in all directions or hurry; There are fortune tellers who wear robes and grow beards, ready to give directions to the world at any time, and village women who sell local products behind Xu Xing's back; There are very authentic western food, and there are also very non-authentic teahouses ..... In short, West Street is a colorful and bizarre lively place.

The West Street at night is fresh, natural and bright. Walking along the road by the river will eliminate the fatigue of the day. In the colorful neon lights, the curtain of the West Street Global Village slowly opened at this moment, emitting a strong exotic flavor, blooming like a rose, completely self-sufficient and unreserved.
