summary

Financial Street is the first large-scale overall directional development financial industry functional area in Beijing. Since its construction in 1992, it has received great support from the state and Beijing Municipality. In October 1993, the State Council approved the "Beijing urban master plan (1991-2010)", which clearly stated: "to build a national financial management center in the area from Fuchengmen to Fuxingmen of the second West Ring Road, and to arrange the headquarters of national banks and non bank financial institutions in a centralized way.". In the "master plan of Beijing (2004-2020)" approved by the State Council in 2005, it is once again clear that financial street is the national financial management center. In 2008, in the overall financial planning, the core position of Financial Street in the capital's financial industry was further determined, and it was proposed to build the Financial Street into the capital's main financial center

.

According to Xicheng District Financial Services Office, in 2012, the three-level tax revenue of Financial Street reached 248.48 billion yuan, up 29.0% year on year, accounting for 81.4% of Xicheng District's total three-level tax revenue and 30.8% of Beijing's total three-level tax revenue.

As the main financial center of the capital, the financial industry still occupies the first place in the three-tier tax revenue of Financial Street. According to the data recently released by the Beijing Municipal Bureau of financial work, last year, the added value of Beijing's financial industry reached 259.25 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 14.4%, accounting for 14.6% of the GDP.

According to the Beijing Financial Bureau, the contribution rate of the financial industry to Beijing's economic growth has reached 24.7%, ranking first among all industries. The financial industry is still the first pillar industry driving Beijing's economic growth and fiscal revenue growth, and its strategic industrial position has been further consolidated.

historical romance

In 1267 A.D., Kublai Khan, the emperor of the Yuan Dynasty, built the capital of the Yuan Dynasty according to the planning principles of KAOGONGJI. There are 50 squares in Dadu City, each with its own gate. On the lintel are the names of Futian square, Jiqing square, Anfu square and Fengchi square. The planning is complete and the buildings are neat.

Jinchengfang, located in the southwest corner of Dadu city in Yuan Dynasty, means from the book of records of the Qin Dynasty: "the solid Guanzhong, jinchengqianli, descendants of all things, the cause of the emperor." In the north of Jincheng square, there is a beautiful decoration of the white tower, the magnificent temple of the capital. During the yuan and Ming Dynasties and the early Qing Dynasty, it was full of silver shops and gold shops. Many businessmen, rich people and relatives made a fortune here. It was a prosperous business district and financial center. In the first year of the Republic of China, the Bank of Qing Dynasty was changed into the Bank of China. "Since then, the banks of the mainland, Jincheng and China Industrial and Commercial Co., Ltd. have been established here successively. Before the tenth year of the Republic of China, the banks had the idea of building a Bank Street.". However, in the warlords' scuffle, jinchengfang gradually lost, and the ticket companies and JinFang turned to Qianmen and Dongcheng. Since the Qing Dynasty, the name of Jincheng square has been changed to Jinshi square.

Jinchengfang is located in the southwest of the inner city of Beijing in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It is an old residential area with many alleys and low-lying terrain. The east side of jinchengfang and Taipingqiao street were originally a flood discharge ditch in the city, from north to south to the South Moat. In the quiet alleys, there are many bungalows and low houses. There are also some royal houses, such as Wuding Marquis and guangningbo residence in Ming Dynasty, Shuncheng Prefecture and Degong residence in Qing Dynasty. There are also some government organs and special venues, such as xunjiecha yuan, tixuecha yuan, tunmacha yuan, jizhouwei, tengpaiying, Yangma Ying, etc.

The sun and the moon are changing. More than 100 years later, from 1992 to 2005, 700 years after the establishment of jinchengfang, the Bank of China building on the east side of today's West 2nd Ring Road (on the former site of jinchengfang) starts from Fuchengmen overpass in the north to the people's Bank of China headquarters on the northeast side of Fuxingmen overpass in the south, with a total length of more than 1700 meters and a width of more than 600 meters It is a modern building complex with strong national style and characteristics of the times. This is the Beijing Financial Street, which will become one of the financial centers in the Asia Pacific region.

geographical position

On the south side of the existing East-West Chengfang street, there used to be small Hutong tengpaiying and Damen Lane in the north-south direction. To the south of the street is Wofosi street in the east-west direction. At the northwest end of the street, there was an ancient temple, Jiufeng temple, which was built by monk Jiufeng in the 22nd year of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty (AD 648). It was rebuilt in the Qing Dynasty. Because of the worship of a reclining Buddha in the temple, it was renamed Wofosi street. This temple still exists in the 1950s. When I was studying in tengpaiying primary school, I played football after school. Sometimes I kicked the ball into the temple. We used to look for the ball over the wall many times. Inadvertently stroked the remaining steles in the temple, lying on the window to see the reclining Buddha in the temple, only remembering that there were some scared people in the dark inside. Now, Baisheng shopping center, China Arts and Crafts Museum, head office of the people's Bank of China and long distance telephone building have been built on top of the three hutongs.

Four hutongs on the north side of Chengfang street have disappeared. They are Baizi Hutong, huayuangong Hutong, South Xingsheng Hutong and West Xingsheng Hutong. Baizi Hutong was called blacksmith camp in Qing Dynasty. It belongs to the special forces camp with red flag border with tengpaiying Hutong in the south of Chengfang street. In the Qing Dynasty, the Garden Palace was called the West Lane or the Town God's Temple road. The northern part of Town God's Temple was later renamed the Garden Palace East Lane.

In the Ming Dynasty, the South Xingsheng Hutong was the boundary of xixinsi West factory. In the Qing Dynasty, the Hutong was formed. Because the north of the Hutong was the Paochang Hutong with red flag, it was called Paochang Hutong. After 1911, Wu Zan, governor of Zhili Province, lived on his side and changed his name to Xingsheng Hutong because of the name of artillery factory. In 1965, he changed his name to Xingsheng Hutong in the West and south according to the direction of Hutong.

The Juyuan Hutong at the north end of huayuangong hutong is now only left in the south. My alma mater, Beijing No.8 Middle School, still exists. In addition, the school has been expanded and a new teaching building has been built. There is still a wall at the original school factory. In Ming Dynasty, Yanyuan Hutong was the seat of xunyanjianyuan government office, which was called xunyanjianyuan Hutong. In Qing Dynasty, it was renamed Yiyuan Hutong. Now, high buildings have been built on the north side of the Hutong.

It is called Xueyuan Hutong according to a long East-West Lane in the north of yuanhutong. The government office of tixue Chayuan in Ming Dynasty was here. It was also called tixue Chayuan Hutong in Qing Dynasty, and it was renamed Xueyuan Hutong in Qing Dynasty. Its No.3 courtyard was once the residence of zongqinde in Qing Dynasty. Now it is occupied by the financial street.

The East-West long street to the north of Xueyuan Hutong, which was called "tunyuan" in Ming Dynasty, was the location of tunmacha courtyard in Ming Dynasty. In Qing Dynasty, it was wrongly called Tun silk Hutong, which has no existence now.

There is a small north-south Lane called Zaolin street in the East and a west-east Lane called Songhe Lane in the West. It was named after a Songhe nunnery in the Ming Dynasty. In the Qing Dynasty, it was renamed Songhe lane, and the indigenous people still call it Songhe nunnery. To the north of Songhe Hutong are banduan Hutong, Songbai Hutong, Zhenwu Hutong and Jinmao Hutong, which are all occupied by high-rise buildings in Financial Street.

The East-West guangningbo and wudinghou hutongs in tun Seri Hutong have been expanded into secondary trunk roads with a width of 40 meters and 45 meters according to the regulations. They form the main framework of "two horizontal and one vertical" Financial Street road with the North-South Financial Street (expanded from the original huayuangong Hutong, etc.). The Hutong disappeared to the north of Bo street in Guangning is Yantong Hutong, which is called Nan Yantong Hutong in Qing Dynasty because the street is like a chimney; zhizhiwei Hutong in Ming Dynasty is called Jizhou health department guarding the capital in Qing Dynasty, which is mistaken as zhizhiwei Hutong; houlou Hutong; xiyangmaying Hutong, which is called Maomaoying Hutong in Ming Dynasty, which is mistaken as yangmaying Hutong in Qing Dynasty, which is divided into two East-West Hutong Tong, later known as East and West yangmaying Hutong; tubichang Hutong, formerly known as tupochang; Qinjian Hutong, formerly known as a part of houlou Hutong; judeli, known as Shuanglan in Qing Dynasty, where Li Wenzhong, an officer of Northeast Army, lived in the Republic of China. His house was named judeli, which was also changed to judeli after liberation; siyanjing, a well with four holes in it in Qing Dynasty, hence its name; Youai Xiang was a part of Maomao Hutong in Ming Dynasty. In Qing Dynasty, there was a tartar temple in the Hutong, and the Hutong was also renamed because of the temple. After liberation (1949), it was renamed Youai lane with the meaning of unity and fraternity. Before and after Shamao Hutong, it was called Shamao or saidai Hutong in Qing Dynasty. Mengduan Hutong and Yudai Hutong were named because they were similar to Yudai. Dahuaner Hutong and xiaopen'er Hutong and Dacheng Hutong were named wuyiku in Eastern Qing Dynasty Hutong, named after the Mahayana temple in the Qing Dynasty, still has a small part of the eastern section which goes directly to the front of the CPPCC auditorium; Daxi Hutong, known as the magpie Hutong in the Qing Dynasty, and later as Daxi que Hutong; Huajia Hutong, known as Huajia Hutong in the Ming Dynasty, Huajia Temple Hutong in the Qing Dynasty, and later as Huajiao temple. I remember when I was a child, I once saw Peking opera performance in a large courtyard in the south of the west section of the Hutong, but now there is no Peking opera performance Save

In the Financial Street Hutong area, there are only dingzhang Hutong, daxiaomaxian Hutong, and the north side of jinshifang Street (from funei street to wudinghou Street) until December 2004. According to the planning, the south section of jinshifang street and the south section of Taipingqiao Street will become the business center avenue, and these hutongs can not escape the fate of disappearance.

Social evaluation

On February 11, 2004, Beijing Evening News published nearly 200 pieces of news about the disappearance of hutongs in Xicheng District in the past 50 years, which caused great concern
