The story
Niumoche ('ox-mill') Street is the old name for Dihua Street Section 2, reportedly after ox-driven rice mills; its other name, Fangxi, relates to the timber trade. It is far quieter than Section 1, mostly homes and small wholesalers. Documentation is thin, so treat the name origins with caution.
