In the early days of liberation, all the city walls were demolished. 1982, the south gate was rebuilt, and the word "Dali" at the door was Guo Moruo's calligraphy collection. Entering the city from the south gate, Fuxing Road, which leads directly to the north gate, becomes a bustling market. There are many shops along the street, selling ethnic handicrafts such as marble and tie-dye, as well as jewelry and jade. You can also find some old houses in the past on the street.
