Sifang Street lies at the core of Lijiang, with the entire city spreading out in all directions from that point. Most of the dwellings are structures made of brick and wood with carved doors and painted windows. In order to conserve the structures and maintain the integrity of the buildings, no motorized transport is allowed inside the city and the only wheeled vehicles permitted within the old town are bicycles and carts.

Sifang Street has four main wide streets that radiate to four directions. Each street has its own sub-streets that connect with one another. Paved with colorful stones, the street is not muddy in the rainy season and not dusty in the summer. It is always smooth and even. Nowadays, equipment for washing the ancient street is still kept in Sifang Street. People can easily use it to clean it.
