Appreciate the misty scenery outside the gallery with artistic conception, so the gallery shed in Xitang has the reputation of "misty rain gallery"

Sheds, also known as rain corridors, are found in many ancient towns in the south of the Yangtze River. It looks like a street with wooden columns and tile roofs. The veranda in Xitang is the most distinctive, because as long as you walk along the river in the ancient town, there will always be a veranda overhead to shelter you from the wind and rain. Especially in rainy days, walking under the veranda, listening to the sound of falling rain and enjoying the misty scenery outside the veranda is full of artistic conception, so the veranda in Xitang has the reputation of "misty and rainy corridor".

most of the verandahs in Xitang are built by the river. Walking in the corridor, you can see all kinds of shops along the street. On the other side is the river, and sometimes there are paddle boats carrying tourists slowly past. Some verandahs also have benches with backs for people to rest, and there are several stone bridges between the verandahs on both sides of the river. Walking under the porch shed, or looking for a teahouse by the river with two chairs to sit by the river, enjoying the river wind and chatting while drinking tea, is definitely a fairy-like leisure.

the corridor in Xitang is nearly 1 meters long, and some corridors are centered between buildings, with adjacent shops and houses on both sides. However, the most beautiful scenery is the corridor shed along the river, of which the south corridor shed starts from the north wall in the east and reaches Songzi Laifeng Bridge in the west, with a history of hundreds of years, which is the most classic. In the movie Mission Impossible 3, Tom Cruise sent his son to the Phoenix Bridge all the way, which is the scene of this corridor.
