Ligongdi, literarily meaning the causeway of Lord Li, is a dike built at the order of Li Chaoqiong, the magistrate of Yuanhe County during the reign of Emperor Guangxu (1875-1908) of the Qing Dynasty. A century later, it has been rejuvenated with new energy, seen in the white walls and black roof-tiles, the crimson peach blossoms and green willows, the crystal clear water and white splashes. The colorful neon lights illuminate the world-famous brands, men and women gather at bars and clubs chatting away the burdens of daily life, these are the typical scenes in a modern society. This is a place where you are willing to get lost and this is a place you can find the real self.
