Tourists take photos with a tiled wall covered with graffiti in Kuan Zhai Alley, a famous cultural site that comes under protection, in Chengdu city, southwest China's Sichuan province, 26 June 2017. Graffiti were left on a tiled wall in Kuan Zhai Alley in Chengdu city, southwest China's Sichuan province, 26 June 2017. The alley, a famous cultural site that comes under protection, has borne witness to the city's history. Unfortunately, the alley's iconic wall made of tiles has been covered with graffiti. The management of Kuan Alley and Zhai Alley, two old-style lanes, has come up with an unconventional way to handle the sketches left by visitors looking to keep their stamps on a replica of an ancient wall. The three-meter-high wall, which stretches for about 100 meters, imitates an old design with the characteristic of the city's traditional architecture. However, while attracting flocks of tourists, the wall is also a magnet for graffiti. The grey-tiled structure has been turned into a "writing board, " bearing witness to visitors' personal signatures, love confessions and good wishes throughout the years. Removing the marks has been futile despite the multitude of methods used to bring back the wall to its original state, Chengdu Shangbao, a local newspaper, reported. However, the site's management also admitted that the tendency of some visitors to leave their trace may not be completely unfounded.
