Shangshe Village: A One-Shot Journey Through Guangzhou‘s Most Intense Urban Village | 23 Oct 2023

23 October 2023, Guangzhou. Another urban village wandering experience—this time, Shangshe Village, not far from Tangxia in Tianhe District, but even more intense. Casual footage by the filmmaker of Masters in the Forbidden City and Every Treasure Tells a Story. This time, I decided to film in one continuous long take—weaving through小巷 until finally emerging onto a wide avenue. Several times I thought I'd hit a dead end, but there was always a turn leading out. ——— Shangshe Village: Guangzhou‘s “youngest” urban village. Located in Tangxia Subdistrict, Tianhe District, bounded by Zhongshan Avenue West (Tianhe Park North Gate) to the south, the Guangzhou-Kowloon Railway to the north, Tangxia Village to the east, and Huajing New Town to the west. This 5-square-kilometer area has only about 4,000 original villagers—yet is home to over 120,000 migrants. This is a true “ant tribe” settlement. Young people settle here, strive here, live here—earning it a reputation as Guangzhou‘s most vibrant urban village. ——— Slivers of sky, handshake buildings, maze-like lanes. Outside: daylight. Step inside: darkness. Endless小巷, never‑ending drips from air conditioners. Get lost here without a guide? Your navigation app probably won‘t save you. Thank goodness for delivery couriers who know every twist. Building gaps are so narrow that only one or two e‑bikes can pass. You can literally shake hands with your neighbor from your own window. Hop across from rooftop to rooftop. And all this, just one street away from the city’s bustling core. ——— Guangzhou‘s包容性 hides in these lanes. Rent under 1,000 yuan. Rice rolls for 4 yuan. Pig trotter rice for 15 yuan. How many dreams have taken root here? Striving in a big city is never easy. Statistics: Over 7 million people live in Guangzhou’s urban villages—about 40% of the city‘s population. There are 425 urban villages, with 11.28 million permanent residents, including 7.02 million non‑registered residents. Tianhe District is one of the most concentrated areas—Tangxia and Shangshe being prime examples. ——— “Shangshe Village isn‘t so much an urban village as a village‑within‑the‑city.” Scholars describe it this way. Dense population, youthful tenants—enormous commercial potential. Ancestral halls of Pan clan descendants, Shuiyue Temple, traditional dragon boat culture. Tradition and modernity, natives and newcomers—interwoven on this land. ——— Where do we begin to understand a city? With its urban villages—Shangshe‘s sliver‑sky lanes, handshake buildings, mazes that demand a one‑take film. With its包容性—rent under 1,000 yuan, 4‑yuan rice rolls, 15‑yuan pig trotter rice. With its people—120,000 young migrants, 4,000 original villagers guarding their heritage. #慢下来看世界 #SlowDownSeeTheWorld #第一人称视角 #POV #广州城中村 #GuangzhouUrbanVillage #探索与发现 #ExplorationAndDiscovery #悬疑惊悚 #ThrillerVibes #长镜头 #LongTake #拍出电影感 #Cinematic #市井生活 #StreetLife #citywalk #CityWalk #大都市 #Metropolis #沉浸体验 #ImmersiveExperience #发现身边的美 #DiscoverBeautyAround #我在故宫修文物 #MastersInTheForbiddenCity #如果国宝会说话 #EveryTreasureTellsAStory #分享给有艺术细胞的你 #ForTheArtisticSoul #她的声音值得听见 #HerVoice #万物生长 #AllThingsGrow #每一个努力拼搏的你 #EveryStriver #氛围感 #Ambience #迷宫 #Maze #握手楼 #HandshakeBuildings #一线天 #SliverOfSky #应该从哪里开始了解一个城市 #WhereToBeginUnderstandingACity 2023年10月23日，广州。还是城中村漫步穿行体验，这一次是上社村——离天河棠下村不远，但更极致。《我在故宫修文物》《如果国宝会说话》导演随手拍。这一次，我决定采用长镜头一镜到底的方式，拍下穿行小巷最终走到宽阔大道的全过程。中间几次感觉走到死胡同了，但居然还有转角走出去。 ——— 上社村，广州“最年轻”的城中村。位于天河区棠下街道，南临中山大道西天河公园北门，北靠广九铁路，东接棠下村、棠东村，西临华景新城。这个面积约5平方公里的地方，原住民只有三四千人，却住着12万多外来人口。 这里是真正的“蚁族之城”。年轻人在这里落脚、奋斗、生活，被称为广州最有现代生活气息的城中村。 ——— 一线天、握手楼、走迷宫。 外面是白天，走进去就变成了黑夜。走不完的小巷，有滴不完的空调水。不熟悉路的人进去了，导航恐怕都导不出来——真亏了快递小哥找路。 楼与楼的间隙很窄，通常只能容纳两辆电瓶车（甚至一辆）通过。你可以在自己屋子里跟隔壁邻居握手，顶楼跨两步可以跳到另一栋楼。它们与繁华的市中心往往也只有一路之隔。 ——— 广州的包容性，就藏在这些巷子里。 低于1000块的房租，四块钱的肠粉，15块钱的猪脚饭。这里承载了多少人的生活和梦想——大城市的拼搏从来都不容易。 据统计，广州市城中村居住人口已超700万人，占全市约40%；全市共有城中村425个，常住人口1128万，其中非户籍人口702万。天河区是城中村最为集中的区域之一，而棠下、上社一带正是典型代表。 ——— “上社村与其说是城中村，还不如说是村中城。”有学者这样评价这里。密集的人气、租客的年轻化，都决定了巨大的商业潜力。村里有潘姓等中原人后裔的祠堂，有水月宫，有传统的龙舟文化。传统与现代、原住民与外来者，在这片土地上交织共生。 ——— 我们从何处开始了解一座城市？ 从它的城中村开始——从上社村的一线天、握手楼，从那些需要一镜到底才能走出来的迷宫。 从它的包容性开始——从低于1000块的房租，从四块钱的肠粉、15块钱的猪脚饭。 从它的人开始——从12万在这里落脚的外来年轻人，从三四千原住民守护的祠堂与文化。 ------ 上社村背景补充 地理位置：上社村南临中山大道西天河公园北门，北靠广九铁路，东接棠下、棠东，西临华景新城。 人口规模：面积约5平方公里，原住民四千余人，现住人口超过12万人，其中绝大部分是外来人口。被称为广州“最年轻”的城中村。 商业特征：近年来吸引了不少国内连锁品牌进驻，集各式风味于一街的餐饮店，形成了独特的“村中城”商业模式。年轻白领喜欢有品位有文化的消费，这种消费反过来也推动村子的文明建设。 住房与生活：握手楼密集，楼间距极窄，通常只能容纳两辆电瓶车通过。房租相对低廉，生活成本低，吸引了大量在天河软件园、广州信息港工作的年轻人租住。 #第一视角打工人 #与小小的我一起探索世界 #悬疑惊悚 #用摄影在街头记录时代 #换个地方看看人间烟火 #我在故宫修文物#如果国宝会说话#分享给有艺术细胞的你 #我想了解这世界 #在人间捕捉市井生活
