Kuanzhai Lane
The name of Kuanzhai Lane literally means wide and narrow lanes, and it consists of three thoroughfares: Kuan Lane (literally "Wide Lane"), Zhai Lane (Narrow Lane) and Jing Lane (Well Lane).
Kuanzhai lane is a fusion of regal tradition and fashionable modernity, where business and leisure meet in the heart of Chengdu. Walking around the scenic area, tourists can enjoy quaint Sichuan compounds in a style of the late Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), small villas of the post-colonial style and, of course, the ubiquitous tea culture in this city.
Former US ambassador to China Gary Locke paid a visit to Kuanzhai Lane.
