2013.01.27 台灣苗栗南庄老街 Taiwan Miali Nanzhuang old street

台灣各地有許多大大小小老街,其實觀光局也就為了帶動地方消費,除了保持老街原貌外,也教導當地居民如何以特產方式吸引外地遊客並建設當地景點。南庄這個小村莊,讓我不小心找到不用錢的停車場,一下車映入眼簾是座吊橋,可讓朋友們走走散心。另一方向則是往老街方向,路邊開始有攤販讓遊客吃吃喝喝,不過老街最開始則是一條不起眼的小水溝,這不起眼的小水溝竟是古早南庄婆婆媽媽在此邊洗衣服邊交換八卦的好地方阿! 水汴頭洗衫坑水依然乾淨,洗衣板依然橫跨在水溝上。
Because of hundreds of years residence history in Taiwan, many streets remain the old style facade, not only for preservation but also for tourism which let the residents have the other way to earn their daily bread. Miali Nanzhuang this small village is one of well-known old streets in Northern Taiwan.  
We parked in a free-of-charge parking lot along the river. The bridge is the first attraction. In the old time, the bridge is the only communication between two villages. Instead of walking onto the bridge, we turned the other way to the small old street. 

In the old time, the bridge is the only communication between two villages.
There are many street vendors when we walked closed to the old small street. 


Many people don't notice this ditch when come to visit. In the old time,  wives came to this ditch  washing clothes and had a gossip with neighbors at the same time. 


南庄老街真是小條到不行,沒人時走五分鐘,大家都在忙著買兩旁的東西時就要走個半小時,不過小街中也有意外的生活藝術,不注意還沒發現呢!走出小街到廟口前面的大街上就輕鬆多了,因為輕鬆也跟阿嬤殺了價買了名產:桂花釀,超好喝到不行! 丈母娘豆干也超夠味~ 桂花酒釀湯圓就有點失敗了...以為只是提味的桂花酒釀搞成整晚都是酒,整碗也就倒倒掉...
Nanzhuang old street is pretty short and narrow compared to the other famous ones in Taiwan. But when people stops by some stores, it becomes pretty hard to walk through.  

In the narrow street, there is a store with decoration. Coffee shop? I don't remember. 
Hand-made sesame green onion bread. 


Pressed tofu with rich garlics, soy sauce and green onions. Very delicious!
