The First
Special ThemeAlleyVeins that connect the nooks and
crannies of the city, filling them with life

The alley is a narrow street branching in from a large street, which forms passageways connecting every corner of the neighborhood. They are usually in the form of narrow and short streets connecting to each other in meandering lines, because they connect spaces where life settled naturally. These different spaces of life come together in the alley to share memories, stories, affinity and emotions. This bond of sympathy is what drives the creation of community. Therefore, alleys are not a sign of backwardness. The more alleys there are in a city, the more they prove the presence of culture and history.

Alleyways hold value as safe and fun places
with a variety of buildings and streets you want to walk in.
