Shanghai, the world's top city, and Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street, Shanghai's top commercial street.
Living in Heather District (now Huangpu District), our childhood memories are the Great World and the City God Temple, mainly for fun. After work, especially when talking about friends, Huaihai Road and Nanjing Road are the main roads, and Huaihai Road is the main road during the day, because there are many people on Nanjing Road, especially foreign tourists. Over time, people feel that Huaihai Road is fashionable and trendy, and Nanjing Road is a bit popular and rustic. In the evening, Nanjing Road and the Bund are the main places, Nanjing Road is mainly for eating, and the Bund is mainly for sightseeing.
In the new century, Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street has been completed, but I learned that my uncle came to Shanghai from Taiwan Province Province to visit relatives and asked me to accompany him to Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street to have a look and take a walk. We all know in Taiwan Province Province that we must visit Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street when we arrive in Shanghai.
It's another good day to send a cool autumn. I accompanied my uncle and his party to the newly-built Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street. One is a Shanghainese who has lived in Shanghai for a long time, and the other is an old Shanghainese who returned to Shanghai fifty years later (my uncle retreated from Shanghai to Taiwan Province Province by military ship). It is the first time for both of us to visit Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street.
For me, the pedestrian street has scenes I am familiar with and detailed, and there are even more unexpected things. Walking on this 1 200-meter pedestrian street, there is always a great sense of freshness. Colorful brick paved roads, unified street kiosks, fashionable brand shopping malls with complete categories on both sides, bustling crowds, lovely sightseeing trains and unique urban sculptures constitute Shanghai's modern commercial street.
There are marble benches along the Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street, which can help you to have a rest when you are tired. Especially near Zhejiang Road, there is Century Plaza in the east and Yong 'an Company in the west, which has just undergone plastic surgery to restore its old appearance. The former performs continuously on the stage every day, while the latter plays saxophone on the balcony on the second floor, which is both relaxing and eye-catching.
Speaking of rest, most European pedestrian streets have no benches for tourists to rest on. There is no bench to rest on the Champs Elysé es in Paris, France, which shows that the designer of Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street is very humanized.
My uncle is different from me. As soon as he got to Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street, he set off for the four major companies. He saw that the old buildings such as Yong 'an Company and Daxin Company were still intact, and he was glad to tell me that your Shanghai government is really not easy! Fifty years later, I can still see the old department store on Nanjing Road in my memory. I'm glad you came. I think he satisfied his nostalgia on this pedestrian street and relived the past years. This is what teacher Yu Guangzhong said, homesickness.
When we were walking on the pedestrian street, my uncle and I talked about the characteristics of Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street: it has the majesty of the Bund, the modern shopping malls of Nanjing Road, the triviality of Tianjin Road, and the elegance and vulgarity of Ermayina Road, Sanma Road and Sima Road, which make different streets have different internal characteristics and are well preserved, just like the character of Shanghainese.
With Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street as the center and the environment radiating outward, you can appreciate the beauty of local customs at different levels in Shanghai during a leisurely walk, just like Shikumen in Shanghai, which combines Chinese and western cultures and has complete facilities. It not only makes Chinese and foreign tourists linger, but also makes literati think.
Inadvertently, we came to Duoyunxuan. My uncle likes antiques. He saw Four Treasures of the Study from the porcelain. See gems from calligraphy and painting. One day is really not good. On the way back, my uncle said, I'm glad you came, but he didn't swim enough in the pedestrian street.
From then on, Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street is the place I often go. I always spend a few days looking at the cooked food in the food store, the cakes in Shen Dacheng, the moon cakes in Xinya, especially the antiques and calligraphy and painting of Duoyunxuan.
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street has been with me for twenty years. For 20 years, builders in Huangpu District have been giving new content to Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street. While retaining a century-old shop, they also incorporate new elements such as the Internet and the Internet of Things.
The centuries-old history of Shixian Company, Yongan Company, Xinxin Company and Daxin Company has been passed down, and at the same time, it has given her new life, and her internal organs can adapt to the needs of the new era. In addition, there are professional stores such as Hengdali Clocks, Hengyuanxiang, Zhang Xiaoquan, Laofengxiang, etc., which maintain strong vitality and make the brand of century-old stores glow with new vitality.
Last year165438+1October 14, GaWC, one of the world's urban research institutions, released the list of world-class cities for 20 18 years, among which Shanghai was once again on the list, and its ranking rose to sixth place.
Beyond Tokyo, Paris, Dubai and other cities, become the world's top city! There is a little credit for the Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street in Shanghai.
China looked at Beijing for a thousand years, and China looked at Shanghai for a hundred years. After the reform and opening up, the commercial street of Nanjing Road has developed for twenty years. Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street, you are the glory of Shanghainese and China people. I hope to stay with you until I get old.
