An industrial-style cultural and creative quarter converted from the former Nanning Silk Spinning Mill, with red-brick factory buildings and giant graffiti walls intact. Highlights: art exhibition halls, trendy cafés and regular market performances—extremely photogenic. The mill carries memories of Nanning's 20th-century textile industry and reopened as a creative street around 2018. As a case study in industrial-heritage revitalization, it draws young crowds and design professionals, with regular live shows and art exhibitions.

Getting there: Metro Line 2, Tinghonglu Station, then walk
