Hongqi Street and the old Changchun Film Studio quarter
Hongqi Street is the cradle of Chinese cinema, home to the Changchun Film Studio (the country's first), with the heritage tram clattering past and a film-themed neighborhood grown up around it. Wandering the area to see the studio's preserved 1930s architecture, murals and movie-history streetscape is free and atmospheric. A paid museum is available inside if you want to go deeper.
