There is a street in Dashila which is referred to as 'Shoe Street' because of the amount of shoe shops that have been established over the years. The most famous of these is the Laomeihua shoe shop. Laomeihua shoes have always been a popular Tianjin brand, and the company established itself in Dashila in 1930, which led to many other shoe shops being set up in competition. Each of the many shops vie for attention, advertising with an array of cloth banners, carved and hand-painted wooden signs and neon or electric lights. The area has always come highly recommended, with a 1935 tourist guide advising that the street be visited at night for a picturesque effect amongst the flags and the lights.
