The Ministry of Commerce announced five national demonstration pedestrian streets on July 22, with China Hangzhou Hubin Pedestrian Street making the list.
Hubin Pedestrian Street has been improving its transportation connections, street quality, and smart facilities, making it a perfect combination of natural landscapes and bustling businesses.
The street is home to some incredible landscapes and is lit up with an array of colorful lights at night. Tourists will feel like they’re in a fairy tale when they walk into the artificial fog. The vibrant logos and poetry verses printed on road surfaces always leave a deep impression on visitors.
There are more than 1,600 brands, including Lululemon, Panasonic, and Lego operating stores on the street. A variety of restaurants provide visitors with an opportunity to taste delicious food from all over the country, while numerous retail stores offer an exciting shopping experience.
Digital technology and big data have made life on the pedestrian street very convenient. Tourists can pay by scanning their faces, check bus schedules and surrounding restaurants using digital screens, and can easily find hotels to stay the night in.
The second phase of renovations on the Hubin Pedestrian Street, which is expected to be completed on October 1, will make the street even more attractive.
