Fuxuexi Road - A beautiful mural street

In the vicinity of Beijing Road Pedestrian Street in Yuexiu District, Guangzhou, there is a long-standing and culturally rich old street - Fuxuexi Street, which is a street connecting Zhongshan Road and Wenming Road. The 'Fuxue' in its name refers to the Guangzhou Fuxue Palace, which was founded in the Song Dynasty during the Qingli years, and is the highest institution run by the Guangzhou government. With the continuous advancement of the old city renovation project, many old houses' street-facing walls are decorated with unique 3D colored paintings, and Fuxuexi Street has transformed into a 'graffiti street' full of Guangfu culture and regional customs, which has set off a trend on social media and attracted many citizens and tourists to come and take photos. The creators of these huge 3D paintings are a pair of twin brothers from Guangzhou born in the 1980s - elder brother Wan Yiju and younger brother Wan Yiheng. They are well-known 3D ground painting artists and the fifth generation of Guangzhou clay sculpture inheritors, also known as the 'Wan Brothers'. With the theme of 'those unforgettable Guangfu memories', they have created the largest Guangfu culture 3D animation block, interspersed with non-heritage cultural themes such as Guangzhou Xihu Flower Market, Guangfu Temple Fair, Lion Dance, Olive Carving, Clay Sculpture, etc. The painted wall of Fuxuexi Street is about 400 meters long, combining 3D illusion, line painting, sculpture and painting, and has set up four themes, including animation, traditional culture, trendy design and non-heritage culture, etc. Each work is designed specifically according to the windows of the street wall and the different heights of the painting points.
