GUANGZHOU MAKES PEDESTRIAN AREA PERMANENT
01 Jun 2002
Posted In: China
Guangzhou's trial Beijing road pedestrian area was made permanent after proving popular with city residents, the district mayor, and the business community. Now every district is clamouring for their own pedestrian area to attract more business. The city hopes that this – along with measures to preserve several historical districts and the Jade Market – will help increase the average 'business tourist' stay from 1 to 2 days.
