Wuma Ci Street Night Market
Wuma Ci Street Night Market is a cultural tourism attraction.
Wuma Ci Street is currently the largest commercial street in Qufu City. The middle section of the northern side of the street originally housed a Confucian ancestral hall built in the late Ming Dynasty, named “Wuma Family Ancestral Hall,” which was the family shrine of Kong Shangjing—hence the name Wuma Ci Street. On the north side of the middle section of the street is the Municipal Public Security Bureau Security Company, formerly the Fourth Mansion of the Kong family, with the Sun family residence to the east of the Fourth Mansion. The middle section of the street also includes the residence of Wu Tingyu. The northern side of the western end of the street originally had the Second Mansion of the Kong family and the Guan Yu Temple.
Wuma Ci Street has now been rebuilt into a complex of traditional-style architecture that retains the classic ancient Chinese architectural style while incorporating modern elements. In the middle of the street stands a four-story building (Gui De Pavilion), from whose top floor visitors can enjoy panoramic views of the beautiful ancient city. Along the street, there are features such as ancient well pavilions, stone memorial archways, sculptural ornaments, and green belts. The walls of commercial properties are adorned with imitation antique bluestone reliefs, creating an ambiance that transports you back in time. The night market on the street is very famous locally, offering a wide variety of dishes and snacks to try.
