An Old Street, A Centennial Story of Friendship and Bond
一条老街,一段跨越百年的相知相守
In the old town of Aksu, Xinjiang, the bustling Wangsan Street carries a gentle century-old story. In the late Qing Dynasty, Wang Fucai, a merchant from Tianjin, was injured while doing business in Aksu. A local Uyghur family, Rozi Karwan and his family, took good care of him for more than a year. When Rozi and his wife passed away, they entrusted their young son Yushan to Wang Fucai. Wang named the boy Wang San and took him to Tianjin to study traditional Chinese medicine.
Years later, the well-trained Wang San returned to Aksu and opened a clinic, offering free medical help to local people from all ethnic groups. A market gradually grew around his clinic, known by locals as Wangsan Bazaar, which later became Wangsan Street.
Over a hundred years, the street has developed into a lively commercial hub. Vendors of different ethnic groups live and work side by side, supporting one another. The name of the street is far more than a place marker. It is a legacy of kindness, a testament to sincere friendship across generations.
在新疆阿克苏老城,热闹的王三街藏着一段温柔的百年往事。清末,天津商人王福才来阿克苏经商时意外受伤,当地维吾尔族乡亲肉孜·卡尔万一家悉心照料他一年多。后来肉孜夫妇离世,把幼子玉山托付给他。王福才为孩子取名王三,带他去往天津学习中医。
多年之后,学有所成的王三回到阿克苏,开起医馆,为各族百姓义诊施药,慢慢在居所周边形成集市,大家亲切叫这里“王三巴扎”,王三街由此得名。
百年来,这条街从小小的医馆集市,变成充满烟火气的商业街。不同民族的商户比邻而居,开店经营、彼此帮扶,美食、手作、日常商铺汇聚于此。老街的名字,不只是一个地名,更是代代相传的善意,见证着人与人之间真诚的相守与交融。
