Changes in the past century

As the first of the four major rice markets in China and one of the earliest trading ports, Wuhu's modern commerce once reached a period of prosperity.

In 1902, the investment of 20000 taels of silver created the predecessor of Zhongshan Road, Dama road.

In 1912, Dr. Sun Yat Sen, the great revolutionary forerunner, visited Wuhu and made a speech to Wuhu citizens on the main road.

When Dr. Sun Yat Sen died in 1925, Wuhu changed the name of the main road to Zhongshan Road as a memorial to the great man.

After the founding of new China, Zhongshan Road was reconstructed on a large scale in the early 1950s. The road was more than 10 meters wide, with commercial network on both sides. Zhongshan Road has gradually become the most popular commercial center in Wuhu, instead of the old image of withered industries due to years of war.

Time flies. With the establishment of Wuhu as the leading and regional economic center in the development of Wanjiang River, it is inevitable to build a modern business center. As a result, the transformation of Zhongshan Road business district was included in the government's work agenda. The construction of Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street has become one of the practical projects of Wuhu Municipal Party committee and government in 1999. Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street was started in January 1999 and officially opened on September 29, 1999. The whole construction period took nine months. The completed pedestrian street is 690 meters long, 30-40 meters wide and 160-180 meters deep from east to west. It is a commercial pedestrian street integrating shopping, tourism, leisure, culture, catering and other comprehensive functions, with a total investment of 140 million yuan. A pedestrian street with modern business spirit and Wuhu characteristics is displayed in beautiful clothes in front of the world.

Lake Street integration

Pedestrian street is a great work in the history of Wuhu construction. A north-south street is interwoven with century square, peace music square and children's playground. In the middle of the road, there is a 10 meter wide leisure belt with flower beds, seats, street lamps, floor lamps, spotlights, decorative lamps, telephone booths, book kiosks and so on. It is exquisite, elegant and unique. A group of stepped springs and Century Flower clocks are set at the north and South entrances of the pedestrian street. Century Square, peace music square and children's playground outline the whole block into three huge blocks, which have their own style and are completely open. "Urban variations" and other three sculptures are interspersed among them, introducing the beautiful scenery of Jinghu into the pedestrian street, realizing the perfect combination of "human and nature", and creating the charming landscape of "Lake Street integration".

Pedestrian street is not only a business cluster, but also a good place for leisure life. When it comes to night, the pedestrian street is full of brilliant lights, and it is magnificent. Bursts of evening wind, sound music, as if to bring people to a dream.

Urban management

Pedestrian street is a beautiful city card of Wuhu.

The city needs "management", and the city image has become a basic resource for the city's foreign cooperation and development. Pedestrian street has set up the image of Wuhu City, showing the beautiful and moving open attitude of Wuhu, and has become a magnet for Wuhu to attract investment! The change of pedestrian street in the past century is actually the footprints of the progress of the times, which makes people see the clear context of historical development.

When people identify the broad development prospects of a city, funds, talents and opportunities will roll in. Wuhu City regards pedestrian street as city brand. First of all, the spirit of "people-oriented" has been embodied in the business philosophy. The first barrier free passage for the disabled and the exclusive passage for the blind in the province have been built, and the first public toilet for tourism in the city has been built. Secondly, we should have the courage to explore in business practice and walk out of a new way of pedestrian street management. The pedestrian street management office, established in July 1999, applies the residential property management mode to the pedestrian street management according to the international quality system standard of property management 1so-9002g. They also openly recruit property management units across the country, and formulate pedestrian street management methods and management assessment standards. This is the first in China. After the implementation of property company management, all public facilities of pedestrian street do not need government maintenance, but the government can get a certain amount of contract fees.
