Perché vale la deviazione

The original factories stood closer to the river, but their name survived here after the waterfront enclave disappeared in the fires and warfare of the nineteenth century. The road's dense clothing markets provide an ironic continuation of the neighborhood's old identity as a place where global trade was compressed into a few crowded streets.

Shisanhang Road in Guangzhou's Liwan District is a hidden gem known for its bustling clothing markets. It continues the area's historical legacy as a hub of global trade, once home to the famous Thirteen Factories.

    Guangzhou Thirteen Factories Museum

    The museum stands within the former riverfront district where foreign merchants were confined under the Canton System. Its maps, trade goods and reconstructed interiors explain how tea, silk and porcelain fortunes collided with opium smuggling, diplomatic pressure and the destruction of the factories in 1856.

    Canton Customs Mansion

    The clock-towered building dates from 1916, but its museum traces Canton Customs back to its establishment in 1685 and through the tightly controlled Canton System. It marks the transformation of Guangzhou's waterfront from a Qing customs regime serving the Thirteen Factories into a modern treaty-port customs administration.
