JIAXING CENTRAL CULTURAL AXIS

Jiaxing Central Cultural Axis Project is located in the old town of Jiaxing, Zhejiang Province, with a total planned area of 80 hectares. As a famous historical and cultural city, the old town of Jiaxing has many unsolved problems, such as the ineffective coordination between the traditional blocks, historical building and style control zones, the scattered distribution of the cultural focus, and the lack of a system. We plan to create a central axis with a length of 2.6 kilometers for the old town, from Nanhu Haoguta Tower, along Funan Street to Zicheng, and along Shaonian Road to Yuehe Historical Block on the north. The central axis with “walking blocks, buildings and neighborhoods with stories” aims to protect the cultural atmosphere of Jiaxing, enhance the vitality of the old town, lead the cultural and fashion trend, perfectly display the inclusive urban characteristics, and retain the fresh samples of traditional life in the old town.
