Basic Introduction to Lianzhou Clogs

The older generation in Lianzhou remembers a folk song: "Three Rivers Grass Shoes, Lianzhou Clogs; East Pond Horseshoes, West Bank Stones." When it comes to Lianzhou Clogs, the elderly are fond of them: In the past, Lianzhou Clogs were not only loved by locals, but also by foreigners who came to Lianzhou to preach and do business. On summer nights, busy people from Lianzhou put on wooden clogs, hand cranked sunflower fans, or sat on the stone pillars at the entrance, or leisurely walked along the stone paved streets. At this moment, the footsteps of "dada" and "dada" echoed at the end of the street, becoming a unique scenic spot at the end of the streets in Lianzhou at that time. The merchants and porters who come to Lianzhou for business cannot stop them. When they leave, they cannot forget to go to a clog shop to buy a few painted and painted women's clogs, as well as men's clogs woven with brown thread into a clog surface to take home

Lianzhou clogs use white flowers and paulownia wood, which grow in high mountains, as the sole. The surface is crossed or nailed with cloth, hemp, leather, or brown thread woven into strips, which have the characteristics of ventilation, breathability, and refreshing feet. They have been popular since the Qing Dynasty and have a history of hundreds of years. They are somewhat famous in various parts of Guangdong Province and Southeast Asia

At the end of the 20th century, the distance between Lianzhou and the provincial capital was narrowed, and the drive from Guangzhou to Lianzhou was shortened from the past ten hours to more than three hours. As a result, the number of tourists coming to Lianzhou was increasing, and there were elderly tourists from Hong Kong, Macao and the the Pearl River Delta who asked about the old and new shops in the mountain city to buy wooden clogs from Lianzhou

Nowadays, Lianzhou clogs not only maintain traditional styles, but also design various streamlined clog shapes based on the characteristics of modern people's feet, making the contact between the soles of the feet and the clogs more fitting and comfortable. At the same time, wear-resistant soft plastic is specially added at the front and back of the bottom of the clogs, which can not only prevent clogs from damaging the floor of urban homes, but also eliminate the sound of clogs colliding with the floor<29. People in Lianzhou also give wooden clogs as gifts to guests, and the reception departments of nearby counties and cities have Lianzhou wooden clogs available to give to visitors from afar
