Bicycles parked between two buildings (hutong) in a narrow "nong tang" (alley) in the center of the city
In a middle sized city like Chaozhou (populatin over 3 million) the bicycle is still the major form of transport, not only for the young but for the majority of the population, the car although as common now in the city is still a major expense and as in many countries is a status symbol

Hey Hi, nice and interesting blog !
I am planning a trip to Shantou/Chaozhou to find out about my "roots" (I am a 3rd generation of Chinese descendant from this region).
Really look forward to go !
Do you live in Chaozhou? What would you recommend me to do/see there?
