Guanyin Bridge is lined with high-rise buildings, full of light, and has an urban atmosphere. Unexpectedly, less than 500 meters away from here, there are hidden in the most primitive market fireworks - old houses covered with green vines, intertwined yellow kudzu trees, mottled stone brick roads, and lively and down-to-earth vegetable markets. Here, it is the Yeshuigou and Daxing Village area, and it is also the location of the former Sangang No. 2 Factory, where the TV series "The Sky of the Wind Dog Boy" was filmed.

Recently, the Yeshuifang Trail has been "new", connecting the Guanyinqiao business district, Yeshuigou area and Beibin Road, creating a unique cultural landscape, and has also become what many bloggers call "unmissable Chongqing treasure check-in place".

The entrance of Yeshuifang Trail is located on Beibin Road, not far from Huaxin Street Station. Xiangguo Temple, built in 1573, was located here, and during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, it was a famous scenic spot "Xiangguo Changchun". After the opening of the wharf of Xiangguo Temple in Jiangbei, an ancient post road connecting Yunnan and Guizhou also passes through here, and for a time, the osmanthus fragrance of Xiangguo Temple and the noisy sound of the wharf converge here. Today, the once rugged pier and staircase have been renovated, and the renovated riverside park has become a good place for citizens to enjoy leisure and entertainment.

On January 28, the reporter climbed the stairs from the entrance of the trail, but saw that the wide steps were built according to the mountain, and the wax plums were planted on both sides of the trail, and the fragrance came to the nose. Walk along the outside of Yulong Tianfeng Community for a few minutes, cross the road, continue to climb, and you will come to Daxing Village, where the original Sangang No. 2 Factory is located. Spiraling staircases, dense trees, and age-rich buildings can be seen everywhere. Switching from the hustle and bustle of the busy city to the quiet old factory area, it is like a world away.

Sangang No. 2 Factory, located next to the Chang'an Plant, was once a state-owned steel plant, and used to have independent schools, stadiums, supermarkets and staff activity rooms. At the end of the last century, after the bankruptcy of the Sangang Plant, the old factory and dormitory were gradually abandoned and dilapidated. Walking here now, the traces of time are still engraved in brick by brick: the words "simplex dormitory" are written on the iron door, the old-fashioned water meter in the alley is rusty, and there are old ** related to the three steel mills on the wall. Around the corner, a small building with a combination of Chinese and Western styles is hidden among two tall banana trees.

Slow is the unique feeling of life here. Under the yellow kudzu tree at the entrance of the small shop, the old people sat in groups of three or five, playing chess, drinking tea, and setting up the dragon gate array, and time flowed extremely slowly.

In the open air, a simple cabinet stands a large mirror, with the faded red word "囍" pasted on the upper left corner, and an old man wearing a velvet hat and holding a pipe sits leisurely on a rattan chair in front of the mirror. "Is there a haircut here? Someone stepped forward and asked. "5 bucks a time. "Why don't you get a sign?" "You don't need a signboard, a lot of people know it, and they're coming from afar. "What if it rains?" "When it rains, it doesn't come out. "Between dialogues is the attitude of life.

The Yeshuifang trail winds up the mountain, climbs to the top of the slope, and leads to the Yeshuigou vegetable market to the left. Along the street for the market, with the land as the stall, full of melons and fruits, river fresh, poultry, utensils, shouting endlessly, the dishes are fresh and cheap, as well as "back to burn white", "pick fat sausage" and other Internet celebrity snacks, attracting a lot of "delicious dogs" to come to find taste.

To the right, it leads to the home of the "Four Brothers of Daxing Village" in the play "The Sky of the Wind Dog Boy". The play is directed by Chongqing director Zhang Yibai, with the theme of the growth of a group of teenagers, and the Douban score is still maintained at 8 points. After the hit of this drama in 2020, fans from all over the country came here to shoot the same style in the play**. Today, the home of the character "Brother Dog" in the play has become a café, and the noodle restaurant of "Dalijiao" has been changed into a hot pot restaurant, and stills are still posted on the wall.

A few years ago, though, it was a different place. Cao Denghui, who has lived in the Zhongxing section of Daxing Village for more than 20 years, told reporters that because of disrepair, the place was once dilapidated, the road was overflowing with sewage, and there was nowhere to stay on rainy days. At the beginning of 2023, the Jiangbei District Housing and Urban-Rural Construction Committee began to implement the Yeshuifang trail project, transforming and upgrading the original fence, local façade, ground pavement, flower pond and surrounding plants, which was completed and put into use in December of that year.

The newly built trail connects the original intricate streets and alleys. "The stone path is smooth and clean, there are railings everywhere, and I often walk, and I walked to the Guanyin Bridge as I walked. Cao Deng will be full of praise.
