Saishang Old Street View in Hohhot
Tourists are enjoying the scenery of Saishang Old Street, the core area of the Saishang Old Street tourism and leisure district, in Hohhot, Inner Mongolia, China, on July 3, 2024. On both sides of the old street, cowhide bags, horn combs, ethnic jewelry, antique specialties, and other commodities are dazzling. Saishang Old Street, which originated in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, has been a trading center since then, where characteristic commodities from the grassland and tea and silk from the Central Plains gather, forming a unique Mongolian merchant culture, national culture, and old city culture, and witnessing the exchanges and integration of various ethnic groups. 88 immovable cultural relics, 37 intangible cultural heritage projects, and 16 time-honored brands are adding a strong historical and cultural atmosphere here.
