Once upon a time, Xiluo was the most sparkling crystal along Zhuoshui River.
The most valuable asset that Zhuoshui River brings to Xiluo would be its water and soil. With the fertile soil and ample water supply, Xiluo enjoyed nearly 300 years of affluence during the era when agriculture dominated the economy. Exquisite and refined historic houses along Yanping Road serve as the perfect witness for the once glorious days. 
We are hoping to restore the tourism business along Yanping Old Street through studying its history, local industries, and emotional connections. We are analyzing its historical context, and designing a “life story museum” for the Old Street that incorporates the remains of old architecture and surrounding elements. In addition, Xiluo’s East Market, newly added architecture and shophouse within the courtyard – An Ji Shop, have also been given new functionality and positioning, thereby allowing the tourism industry at the historic Old Street to be reborn.
