The movie "Hot and Hot" directed and filmed by Jia Ling is scheduled for the first day of the Lunar New Year in 2024, and she lost 100 pounds in order to shoot this movie. As soon as the news was sent, Jia Ling lost 100 pounds, and immediately "exploded" on the hot search, and many filming locations for this movie are in Panyu!
The real scenes of the film were basically filmed in Guangzhou, and many of the scenes were filmed in Panyu, such as Longyuan Road in Hualong, Guanbian Road in Shiqiao, and the night market in the three districts of Shiqi City Square.

There is a wide range of delicacies from all over the world.
Speaking of Shiqi Night Market, the first thing that comes to mind is the "more exciting the night" light sign in front of the night market, which can be said to point out the charm of the night market culture in one sentence!
The more exciting the night, the more wonderful it is, and the late-night food "paradise" of Shiqi people
Whenever night falls, Shiqi Cultural Square and its surroundings slowly boil up, after dinner, the citizens who take a walk and dance the square dance have gone out to gather in the direction of the square, and the Shiqi City Square and the entire night market next to it are also lit up by bright lights, ** also slowly more and more with the night, taking advantage of the free time at night to shop, to forage for food at dinner time, and to the late night to eat supper workers have gathered here, making this place as lively as a bazaar!
The night market is divided into three districts, each with its own characteristics, which are more exciting the more you go at night
There are many shops around Shiqi City Plaza, restaurants, cinemas, KTVs, clubs, Internet cafes, beauty salons, clothing stores, etc., even at night, they are still crowded, and the famous store street, pedestrian street, and food street are more popular than during the day; In the city square north of Shenkeng Street, there are restaurants such as Lao Xiang Village, Xiangchangxuan, Jiang Taigong, Chaocheng Casserole Porridge, Grilled Fish and Lobster Restaurant, and Mixue Bingcheng, which are more familiar to the neighbors, each of which has its own special dishes to meet the needs of different diners; The supper city is a food open-air square, whether it is hot pot, grilled fish, barbecue skewers, beer or crayfish, you can find it in the open-air square.

But the liveliest is the open-air night market on the south side of Shenkeng Street, which is divided into:
The first, second and third districts are parking lots during the day, and after 5 o'clock in the afternoon, they are immediately transformed into a lively night market. As the night deepened, the drum kit sounded "knock, knock, knock" in the yes camp in District 1, and the atmosphere gradually became warmer. The colorful light strips and flying ** light up the night of Shiqi.
As the night darkens, the atmosphere at camp Yeah slowly becomes more lively (Photo courtesy of City Square).
In addition to the three areas where "Hot and Hot" was filmed, the first and second areas also have their own characteristics. In recent years, the boot market has quietly emerged, becoming a comfortable experience for the nightlife of many urban "new new humans".

The yeah camp in District 1 has specially built a trunk market camp to provide a one-stop shop for eating, drinking and playing, with Internet celebrity frogs, bamboo tube milk tea, hand-made lemon tea and Shiqi's local salty and sour being the highlights here. Drinking milk tea and enjoying the visual feast of the live house, any pressure disappears in an instant.

District 2 can be described as a shopping paradise for migrant workers, with men's and women's clothing, shoes and hats, mobile phone accessories, boutique department stores, etc., providing a full range of shopping experience for the surrounding citizens. The young lady who loves beauty can also do a nail art here by the way, and the quality is also very good.
The things in the night market here are good and cheap, we can always find a favorite, the variety of supper is rich, you can eat whatever you want, and you can eat a supper after shopping. Xiao Xu, a migrant worker who lives nearby, has a soft spot for this night market and often comes over with his little sisters to eat and drink.
Ignite the "night economy" and rejuvenate the old street
In the heart of every old Shiqi, they will definitely remember the lively situation of the Shiqi Commercial Street Night Market at the end of the 20th century. Today, some time-honored brands such as Baiyue Shopping Mall, Weiye Yunmian, Baifulai Bakery, Xueliang Glasses, Zhenzhen Xiansour, Bobo Dessert and other time-honored brands on the old streets of Commercial Street, Fuhao Street, Longji South Road and Qishan Road have endured for a long time, and driven by the radiation of the surrounding Shiqi Cultural Square and Shiqi City Square, the charm of the Laojie Night Market is still there. The older generation likes to reminisce about the past here, and the younger generation likes the nostalgic atmosphere here.

Opened in 1992, Baiyue Shopping Mall is located at the intersection of Longji South Road and Commercial Street, and is a commodity retail business enterprise under the Guangzhou Shiji Supply and Marketing Cooperative, with daily necessities, food, medicine, audio-visual products, toys, clothing, knitted cotton fabrics, etc., becoming the No1 of Shiqi's "mothers" after tea and dinner, a collection of walking, shopping, chatting in one, can be described as the most unique existence of Shiqi at night; Weiye Yunmian and Bobo desserts near Baiyue Shopping Mall are not tired of eating by many old neighborhoods, and the storefront is not conspicuous, with an area of only about 20 square meters, and less than ten tables are placed, but it is often difficult to find.
Treasure salty and sour. Before the movie is popular, hurry up and take your 520g stomach, set off spontaneously, measure with your footsteps, "check in" with the tip of your tongue, follow Jia Ling to experience the nightlife of Shiqi people, and look for surprises and steaming life around the corner.
