300 m
Wenta Pagoda
No surviving record securely identifies who built this small waterside tower, but Pantang tradition says villagers raised it to improve the community’s scholarly fortune and examination success. Nearby stonework once connected the site with a royal flower garden of the Southern Han period, although those inscriptions later disappeared.
400 m
Chen Lianbo Mansion
This canal-side mansion belonged to banker and merchant leader Chen Lianbo, whose adjoining private landing allowed guests to arrive by launch. Its rooms hosted the Liwan Club, where commercial elites mixed business with politics before Chen’s armed Merchant Corps came into violent conflict with Sun Yat-sen’s government in 1924.
450 m
Longjin West Road Qilou Block
Numbers 55–67 form an unusually intact Republican-era row of four-story qilou shop-houses, their sheltered pavement carried beneath residences and Ionic-style columns. The block records the transformation of Longjin from a waterside settlement into a modern commercial road after its expansion around 1930, while its ground-floor businesses still preserve the arcade’s original everyday purpose.
900 m
Luan Yu Hall
This small guild hall belongs to the martial performers of Cantonese opera—the specialists responsible for combat, acrobatics, falls, and dangerous stage business. Its name refers to the palanquin they traditionally carried while guarding the image of theatrical patron deity Huaguang during processions; practitioners still demonstrate southern-style opera combat and the red-boat wooden dummy tradition here.
900 m
Bruce Lee Ancestral House
The house is better understood as the home of Bruce Lee’s father, Lee Hoi-chuen, one of Cantonese opera’s celebrated comic-role performers in the 1940s. The restored Xiguan residence links two performance traditions: the stylized combat of Cantonese opera and the screen martial arts that Bruce Lee later transformed into a global phenomenon.
900 m
Cantonese Opera Art Museum
Cantonese opera museum at 127 Enning Road, with its own halls and collection.
