It is a laid back area where the locals enjoy traditional Chinese pastimes such as tea and mahjong. Langqiao bridge is located in the district. On the bridge there is a well-known restaurant where many famous local and national Chinese gather to enjoy the traditional food which is very spicy and numbing.
