Puqian Old Town Street is located in Puqian Town, Wenchang City, south China's Hainan Province. First built in 1895, it was restored and redesigned multiple times by overseas Chinese returning to Wenchang. Century-old buildings here maintain the architectural style of southern cities from the 1920s.

The exotic architecture attracts many film crews. Popular TV dramas including "Five Star Hotel" and "Waves on the South China Sea" were filmed here. 

The street is a popular tourist attraction in Wenchang, boasting immense aesthetic and tourism value.
