What's the difference between the architectural styles of Wuma Street and Nantang?

Wuma Street, as a part of the ancient city of Wenzhou, has an antique architectural style. In ancient times, merchants gathered here, silk shops, department stores, copper and tin products shops, Chinese and western pharmacies and money houses lined up, which was the commercial center of the ancient city. Once upon a time, there was a river on the south side of Wuma Street. Streets and alleys are connected with those of the ancient city, and rivers are connected. Ye Shi mentioned the urban layout of Wenzhou before the Song Dynasty in Yongjia Kaihe Ji: "In the past, the county was built around the inner and outer rivers ... if you look up, it will look like a game." "Dong Jia Wu Yu" also has "one side and one canal, the boat will reach; Residual incense (cooking) after washing, the home has the advantage of taking a clean bath; It can be loaded and flooded, and the walker has no load. " It can be seen that the block water system was closely linked at that time and became an important channel for traffic and cargo transportation. This unique design of "one street and one canal" has become a major feature of Wenzhou ancient city. However, with the development of modern transportation, it has been replaced by widened roads. It's a pity that we can't see the sight of "the tower overlooks the boat and there are many bridges in the water lane" anymore.

Inheriting the cultural foundation of Ningbo, Nantang Old Street takes "the window of Ningbo traditional culture, the characteristics of Nantang in the south of the Yangtze River and the area of Yuan culture" as the theme, and reproduces the strong atmosphere of Ningbo people's business transactions and daily life in the past 100 years by completely preserving more than 500 meters of traditional streets and lanes in the south of the Yangtze River. Nantang Old Street has 1 cultural relics protection units and 6 cultural relics protection points. In the design and construction, the historical charm, architectural features and celebrity culture of the old street have been successfully integrated into the block layout, and the "integration of history into life and commerce into historic sites" has been realized.
