Nanhou Street is the central axis of three lanes and seven lanes. The reconstructed Nanhou Street will be full of antique charm, and the pavement width will reach 12m, including a pedestrian street with a width of 7m in the middle and roadsides with a width of 2-2.5m on both sides. Nanhou Street starts from Yangqiao Road and ends at Jipi Road, with a total length of only 634 meters. Positioning is a leisure and cultural commercial street combining tradition and modernity.
In the history of Nanhou Street, there are many traditional craft industries in Fuzhou, such as lanterns, mounting, bookstores and so on. Nanhou Street is positioned as a traditional cultural commercial street, and some time-honored brands, such as Mijiachuan, Juchengtang Bookstore, Yuanxiao and other century-old brands, are selected for restoration according to the operating conditions. The traditional lantern festival, which is deeply loved by the public, is initially planned to be held regularly every year. In addition, relevant departments also plan to invite Fuzhou traditional arts and crafts masters such as Shoushan stone carving, bodiless lacquerware and cork painting to set up arts and crafts master exhibition shops in Nanhou Street to increase the traditional business atmosphere.
In Nanhou Street's business format planning, there are "new faces" such as bar coffee and top luxury goods. The appearance of these new faces will inject modern factors into the traditional Nanhou Street.
The protective restoration project along the street in Nanhou Street was completed on June 5438+ 10, 2009, and the street was opened in the Spring Festival of 2009, reappearing its historical features of "the glazed factory outside Zhengyangmen and the Nanhou Street in front of Yijinfang". It is said that lanterns in Nanhou Street began in the Song Dynasty and flourished in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Lanterns have the functions of viewing, praying and increasing happiness, and are deeply loved by people.
For thousands of years. As early as the Song Dynasty, Fuzhou lanterns were very famous. According to the Song Dynasty's Old Wulin Story, Fuzhou's lanterns inlaid with pure white jade are "dazzling, like ice-clearing jade pots" and are listed as top-grade lanterns in Beijing. At that time, lanterns were made all over the country, Suzhou and Fuzhou were the best, and Fuzhou was above Suzhou. Explain the high level of Fuzhou lamp-making technology.
The original Lantern Festival was just a folk lantern show held by the government to show "having fun with the people". Wang Yingshan, a scholar of Wanli in Ming Dynasty, recorded that "hanging lanterns along the door and enjoying them all night is called the lantern market". However, people's hearts and passions aroused by lanterns have become the traditional culture of today's folk festivals. There are also some exciting stories. For example, during the Yuanfeng period of the Northern Song Dynasty, in order to whitewash the peace, the government ordered Fuzhou people, rich or poor, to donate several lanterns to every household during the Lantern Festival. Chen Lie, a scholar and poet living in Langguan Lane, Nanhou Street, was greatly indignant. Chen Lie is honest and knowledgeable, and he is also called "Four Gentlemen of the Seaside" with the famous Neo-Confucian Chen Xiang, imperial academy Zheng Mu and Zhou Ximeng. Chen Lie thought that the government ignored people's livelihood and wasted people's money, so he ran to the rostrum of the "mighty military gate" (Drum Tower) and wrote: "A rich man has a lamp, Taicang has a millet, a poor man has a lamp, and his father and son cry together. Do you know the wind is too protective? I still hate singing songs that are not wonderful. " Expressed the voice of the people, let Fuzhou satrap Liu Jin realize his mistake and take back his life. Chen Lie's action was recorded by Liang Kejia, prime minister of Xichun in the Southern Song Dynasty, in the "Three Mountains Record" which has been circulated for ages.
Fuzhou has the custom of sending lanterns. Because "Deng" and "Ding" are homophonic in Fuzhou dialect, sending a lamp means "Jia Ding". Where there is demand, there is market. Nanhou Street is the largest market for making and selling Spring Festival lanterns. In the early years, Fuzhou's daughter got married, regardless of whether she was born or not, her parents had to send lanterns. Send Guanyin lanterns or God-given inner lanterns when you are not born. In the second year after the baby is born, she will send "baby sitting in a basin" lanterns, and in the third year, she will send "orange lanterns". If there are several children, she will send some lanterns until the children are 16 years old. Some give birth to two to three, and the extra one is called "headlight", hoping that the child will get ahead. Yang Guifei, a Jiaqing juren who lives in Gongxiang, is a good friend of Lin Zexu. She vividly described this point in Rongcheng Yuanxi's ci. Between the lines, it says, "Our children have been given colorful ribbons, and the light in the bride's room has increased. I wanted to unload the gold hairpin, so I reported my parents to send a lamp. " Fuzhou nursery rhymes: "On the first month of Lantern Festival, grandma hurts her nephew (grandson) and brings red and orange lanterns to add good luck."
The old custom of the Lantern Festival in Nanhou Street started from the third day of the first month and lasted until the fifteenth day, with the eighth day to the twelfth day being the most lively. There is a folk saying that "we only watch the eighth day of the Lantern Festival", because on the 13th night of the first month, we are "paper-blind" (meaning "Lantern Festival"), and our parents must send lanterns before the 13th. On the night of Lantern Festival, adults will light lanterns for children and greet the arrival of lanterns with the children in the neighborhood. The annual Lantern Festival has become a happy night for children.
There used to be several shops with autocratic lanterns in Nanhou Street, most of which were handed down from family. Because lanterns are only bought and sold on the first few days of the first month, they are generally only made as big ball lanterns hung by large families, big lanterns hung by temples or "high photos" to greet the gods, "hundred grandchildren" at funerals, small lanterns lit and dragon lanterns for festivals. There are few signs in general shops, and most of them are called so-and-so lantern shops. Lanterns are made of paper, cloth, bamboo and wood. Watermelon lanterns, lotus lanterns, vegetable lanterns, orange lanterns, sheep lanterns, monkey lanterns, knife-closing lanterns, unicorn lanterns, champion riding lanterns and music lanterns are all available during the Spring Festival. Modern also has "airplane lights". The lantern-tying artists also make some exquisite lanterns as needed, and make palace lanterns, lanterns, wall lanterns and various hanging lanterns with yarn, silk, satin, silk and glass. The variety is rich, both elegant and popular, but also pleasing to the eye. Various lanterns add happiness and auspiciousness to people. During the Cultural Revolution, lanterns were regarded as the product of feudalism, and there were no colorful lanterns in Nanhou Street. Although it was restored after the Cultural Revolution, lanterns were only used during the first month, and the artists who tied lanterns were turned into lucrative wreaths to support their families, which affected the traditional cultural atmosphere in Nanhou Street. In 2007, the party and government leaders in Gulou District of Fuzhou held the first "Nanhou Street Lantern Festival" in order to strengthen the protection of lanterns, which attracted the attention of superior leaders.
In the first month of 2008, the Gulou District Government held the second "Nanhou Street Lantern Festival" again, introduced a protection and reward mechanism, and held a unique ceremony of "Nanhou Street Lantern Festival artists accepting apprentices". At the end of 2008, Nanhou Street was named as "the hometown of folk culture and art in China" by the Ministry of Culture, and the Nanhou Street Lantern Festival ushered in spring again! Fuzhou folk sculpture is a new landscape in Nanhou Street. These works are placed under the newly planted trees in the street, and the figures are slightly larger than real people.
It has the characteristics of traditional industries in Fuzhou.
Block printing depicts an old master sitting at his desk carving templates for printed books. The words on the board are clearly visible, and a young man is standing beside him reading a book.

Historically, the residents of "Three Pavilions and Seven Alleys" were mostly gentry, officials, their families and wealthy businessmen, so there were a large number of bookshops and bookstores in Nanhou Street, and the traditional cultural atmosphere was extremely strong.

"Taiping Banquet" is a famous local snack in Fuzhou and a festive dish in Fuzhou customs.
Fuzhou people will eat "Taiping Banquet" on holidays, weddings, funerals and celebrations. When friends and relatives get together, they will also use their own "Taiping" and "Taiping", so "nothing can be done without a banquet, and nothing can be done without a banquet." Therefore, the meat swallow has become a gift, which is deeply loved by Fuzhou people, including overseas folks.
In the back streets and alleys of Fuzhou, I heard a string of rhythmic "click, click" sounds. Follow them, and I can find the Yanpi shop. However, if you want to buy authentic and excellent swallows, you will also get the old Tongli Meat Swallow Store on Fuzhou Nanhou Street, which is called "Tongli Hundred Years, Chinese Swallows".
Dafuxing fish balls
Like meat swallow, fish balls are also a famous dish on the table of Fuzhou people. "Without fish balls, there is no table". From this proverb, we can know Fuzhou people's preference for fish balls. Dafuxing fish balls are made of sharks, eels or freshwater fish, chopped and stirred with potato powder as the skin, wrapped with lean pork or shrimp, and kneaded into balls. The skin is thin and even, the color is white, the food is smooth and crisp, and the soup is fleshy but not greasy.

In the production process, they pay more attention to the selection of materials, constantly improve the technology, and gradually highlight their own characteristics, and "Tongkou Powder Dry" is famous at home and abroad. 1In the early 1920s, 5-6 workers formed a manual workshop group, and there was a clear division of labor in grinding, squeezing, discharging powder, drying and collecting powder. A production workshop produces about 150 kg of dry rice flour a day. Before liberation, there were about 20 production workshops here, with a daily output of about 3000 kilograms of dried rice noodles.

Selling ancient books published before the Republic of China and old books published during the Republic of China, displaying the artistic works of famous people in three lanes and seven alleys, recommending Fuzhou historical documents and local customs, and purchasing all kinds of antique books are the four highlights of Fuzhou antique bookstore.
Mi Jia chuan Biao Biao branch
"Mijiachuan" decoration shop was built in Tongzhi period of Qing Dynasty (1865) and has a history of nearly 138 years. Most people who come to Mijia Boat for the first time have this question: Why is the owner named Mier the only punting boat, so it is called Mijia Boat? Mr. Lin Wenguang, the current person in charge, solved the mystery for us. The founder of "Mijia Boat" is Lin Wenguang's grandfather Lin Jinshi. At that time, Master Lin Jinshi moved from Xihe, Fuzhou to Nanhou Street, Fuzhou to open a mounting shop. The shop didn't have a name at first, let alone a plaque, but this didn't affect the Lin family's mounting skills. Many people come here, including He Meisheng (also known as He), a juren and calligrapher in Fuzhou in the Qing Dynasty. He saw that the name of the store was unknown, and volunteered to write a plaque for the store "Mijia Boat". Legend has it that Mi Fei, a great painter and calligrapher in the Northern Song Dynasty, likes to wander in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River to sketch. Because of the humid climate in the south of the Yangtze River, Mifei hung his paintings and calligraphy on the bow of every dock, dried them and displayed them. "Mijia Boat" is taken from "Mijia calligraphy and painting are all over the river beach", which is meaningful and suitable to be used as a decoration shop. After the plaque was hung, it caused quite a stir in Sanfang and Qixiang. Sedan carriages come and go, and some scholars even recite poems and paint in the mounting shop.
"Mijia Boat" is famous for its high-quality materials and exquisite skills, and its famous signboard is naturally not simple. Lin Wenguang proudly said that "Mijia Boat" is not only specially designed for Xuan paper, fabrics and shafts, but also has many articles about pasting. "Cook the paste to master the temperature, and soak it in water for half a month to a month after cooking, so as to put out the fire and ensure that the mounted calligraphy and painting is flat and not deformed. Coupled with ancestral prescriptions, insects are afraid of medicine and can prevent moths. "
Today, there are not many antiques on the Mijia ship. The nanmu table with a length of 3 meters and a width of 1.5 meters and a nanmu long ladder were all available at the beginning of the store. They accompanied the Mijia boat through 138 and experienced a tortuous process from prosperity to decline, and then from decline to prosperity.
Yihai Yan Rou Laopu
Yihai Yan Rou Old Store originated from the "Juji Qingshui Yan Rou Store" opened by Fuzhou native Wang Shitong on Yanping Road (now Damiao New Village, Baima South Road) before Haiphong in Taijiang District during the Tongzhi period (1869). The meat swallow created by Wang Shitong (whose real name is Jin Ju) was named because it was cooked in a pot for a long time and the soup didn't paste.
Juji Qingshui Rouyan is made of lean meat, sweet potato powder, glutinous rice and a small amount of refined salt. The product is white and thin, delicious and resistant to cooking. It is a bowl of big dishes for Fuzhou people's New Year or festive banquets, also known as "Little Changchun" and "Taiping Banquet". Fujian people often send meat swallows to relatives and friends who are thousands of miles away to comfort their homesickness. Therefore, the business of Kikuji Qingshui Yan Rou Store is booming.

Xinjiu
Qingjiu, known as authentic Fujian rice wine,
Mainly because of the complexity of its brewing process and the rich, mellow and nutritious wine.
According to legend, on the day when the king of Fujian and Yue had no capital, folk beauties presented green wine to the palace.
