Duanzhou, a thousand-year-old city, has a profound and dignified history and culture and a beautiful modern atmosphere. Her youthful charm makes all Zhaoqing people feel particularly comfortable, comfortable and proud.
When foreign tourists enter Zhaoqing, they must first express their heartfelt admiration for the face of Zhaoqing. Along Duanzhou Avenue, the spacious eight-lane asphalt pavement runs through the urban area in a streamlined way, and various urban road traffic facilities are advanced and perfect. The streets are lined with trees, and the buildings along the streets are fresh and bright after a unified beautification and lighting project. Strolling through the streets in the night, the streets are flat and tidy, and everywhere is brightly lit. After widening, Jianshe Road and Tianning Road are full of neon lights and flowers. Song Cheng West Road, which is opened on the whole line, shows the majestic posture of the north side of the Song City Wall in front of tourists, making the original ancient city wall more spectacular and charming. We approached the picturesque Xinghu archway and overlooked it. Colorful lights set off the beautiful Xinghu Lake, and the lakes and mountains are beautiful. Guests swarmed from all directions.
The "three most suitable" has aroused strong discussion.
At the Ninth Party Congress in Zhaoqing, which attracted much attention from Zhaoqing citizens, Lin Xiong, secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, pointed out in his report that to realize the new development of Zhaoqing, we must lay a solid foundation for development and speed up the construction of a new platform for system, science and technology and urbanization. In building a new platform for urbanization, we should establish the concept of managing cities and speed up the construction of central cities. Actively implement the planning and construction of "connecting the south to the east", speed up the construction of a regional central city with a population of more than one million on both sides of a river, and build Zhaoqing into a garden-style scenic city most suitable for tourism, an ecological landscape city most suitable for human habitation, and a modern industrial city most suitable for entrepreneurship.
At the Third Plenary Session of the Ninth Zhaoqing Municipal Committee, Lin Xiong, secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, once again proposed that we should vigorously promote the urbanization process and increase investment mainly in infrastructure construction, which is an objective requirement for improving the investment environment and building a development carrier, an inevitable choice for promoting the coordinated development of urban and rural economies, and an important measure for cultivating a new round of growth momentum. We must further strengthen the concept of urban management, enhance the carrying capacity of the city, and realize the benign interaction between urban management and urban development.
In 2004, under the leadership of the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government, the people of Zhaoqing entered a new stage of "concentrating on construction and developing wholeheartedly".
Interviewing Zhaoqing citizens and talking about the changes of the city, the people talked about the "three most suitable", which made us deeply feel the people's strong recognition of the "three most suitable" and their incomparable yearning for a better tomorrow in Zhaoqing.
The words of Uncle Biao, a retired veteran cadre, spoke out the aspirations of Zhaoqing citizens: Zhaoqing is a national historical and cultural city, an excellent tourist city and a civilized city in China, and there is great potential and good preconditions for developing tourism. However, due to the long-term lack of the concept of managing the city, the comprehensive function of the whole city is low, which is manifested in dilapidated roads, narrow streets and unclear street lamps. The characteristics and charm of the city cannot be highlighted, and the radiation-driven role of the central city is difficult to play if tourism is to prosper. "Three Best Suites", taking Scientific Outlook on Development as an example, defines the future development direction of Zhaoqing.
We went to the interview by taxi. Drivers in their twenties drive fast and steadily. We praised the driver's good skills. The driver said, "It's not my skill, it's the road. The whole city is almost flat asphalt. Driving on such a road is simply a pleasure! "
A traffic policeman told us an interesting thing: now the streets in the urban area are wide and beautiful, and the awareness of car and motorcycle drivers to obey traffic order has also been obviously improved. Not only traffic accidents are reduced, but also some traffic accidents are handled occasionally. The mutual courtesy and gentleness of the parties sometimes surprise the traffic police.
Perhaps it is such a truth that people are transforming the environment, and the beautiful environment in turn affects every citizen of the city and enhances the image of the city.
Municipal construction investment 1 100 million yuan.
What kind of guiding ideology there is, what kind of action there is.
In 2004, the municipal party committee and government invested 654.38 billion yuan in urban construction, which is unprecedented in Zhaoqing history!
The person in charge of the Municipal Administration Bureau told us that Zhaoqing's large-scale urban reconstruction and construction in 2004 really achieved a high starting point planning and high standard construction. Urban road reconstruction and street lamp engineering construction, including original subgrade disease treatment, pavement paving, street lamp modeling, lamp spacing setting, greening tree species selection, etc., will repeatedly conduct feasibility analysis and demonstration with relevant experts and scholars, and solicit the opinions of the general public in detail.
In 2004, only the Municipal Council completed the re-widening and paving of asphalt concrete pavement of Jianshe Road, Bao Yue Road, Gongnong Road, Renmin Road, Le Kang North Road and Chengzhong Road1Road, and the greening and replanting of 17 Road. In one year, 23 urban roads and pavements were renovated and improved, and more than 30,000 square meters of green space were built.
In view of the phenomenon that the lights in some streets and lanes in the city are unclear and there are roads without lights, the Municipal Administration Bureau has successively completed the construction and installation of unlit street lamps on 22 roads, including Furong Road, Tianning South Road, Le Kang Middle Road and Haoju Road. The old street lamps of 38 sections such as Baylor Road and Guta Road and the high pole lamps of 9 intersections such as Guta Middle Road and Gongnong North Road were transformed, and the key lighting projects such as the top of Overseas Chinese Building, Yuejiang Building and Chongxi Tower were transformed with colored lights, which highlighted the eye-catching appearance. Pave a beautiful road, Passepartout, and it will be brightly lit all night.
In order to improve the environment in Zhaoqing, our city beautified and lightened some buildings on both sides of the road, which is the first time in the urban area. From April to July, 2004, the municipal administration responsible for the construction completed the beautification and lighting project of the buildings on both sides of the 9 km long street from Duanzhou No.2 Road to Duanzhou No.7 Road, which made the buildings on both sides of these sections look brand-new and effectively improved the environmental quality of Zhaoqing City.
The new Zhaoqing Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government focuses on the people's feelings, and the power is used by the people and beneficial to the people. The people see it in their eyes and it is sweet in their hearts. Since September last year, the municipal government has continued to beautify and brighten Jianshe Road and Lekang Middle Road. First of all, we must dismantle the security net of 1 100 houses and shops along the street. The person in charge of the Urban Council told us with emotion that the municipal construction will affect the whole body. The project needs to dismantle a large number of safety nets and temporary buildings. The construction unit has considered all kinds of difficulties in advance. I didn't expect the project to go smoothly unexpectedly, and the general public was very cooperative. Many citizens said, "The new municipal party committee and municipal government will do good and practical things for the citizens. Our city is becoming more and more beautiful. We believe in the government. If you need any cooperation, just let us know. "
With the active cooperation of the general public, it only took 1 month, and the demolition of the residential security net and some temporary buildings was successfully completed. Zhaoqing's new Party committee and government have sincerely served the people, won the support and love of the broad masses, and even moved the people of Zhaoqing. The harmony and tacit understanding between the government and the masses have been rapidly promoted in the development of the city. Support and depend on each other, just like water and milk.
Witness the Great Wall's "Breakthrough" in the Song Dynasty
The vast Xijiang River, rolling eastward, gave birth to China's wonderful Lingnan culture. Zhaoqing is an important birthplace of Lingnan local culture, and the ancient city wall in Song Dynasty is one of the most remarkable cultural symbols of Zhaoqing ancient buildings.
For many years, Zhaoqing citizens have been hoping to get through Song Cheng West Road and develop all the northern side of the ancient Song Cheng city wall, adding luster to Zhaoqing City. In 2004, the new Zhaoqing Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government helped citizens realize this dream.
Zhaoqing citizens remembered this moment. On May 5, 2004, with the opening of Song Cheng West Road, the buildings on the north side of the ancient Song Dynasty city wall were completely amazing and magnificent.
Zhaoqing citizens have always had deep feelings for the ancient city walls of the Song Dynasty. According to historical records, the Song City Wall was originally an earthen city wall, which lasted for three years. Point ad 1 1 13? Snow will expand the earthen city and build a brick city. The ancient city wall was restored more than 20 times in Song Dynasty, but the position of the city wall and the city gate never changed. The city walls built in the Song Dynasty have been well preserved so far, which is rare in China. In recent years, in order to protect the landmark buildings of famous cities, Zhaoqing Municipal Government has allocated special funds to repair the northern section of the city wall, repair Chaotianmen, piers and crevasses, and rebuild the Piyun Building, so that the ancient city wall of Zhaoqing can be reproduced. But except for a section on the north side, the Song City Wall is still surrounded by later buildings. How to get rid of the siege of the city wall and restore its true colors? According to the wishes of the general public, the new municipal party committee and municipal government will open Song Cheng West Road, and further development of Song Cheng City Wall has been put on the important agenda. The main leaders of the municipal party committee and municipal government have repeatedly instructed that the opening of Song Cheng West Road and the construction of Song Cheng City Wall should be organically combined, and at all costs, planning should be carried out from a high starting point, construction should be carried out with high standards and high quality. During the project construction, the main leaders of the city visited the site several times and called relevant departments to conduct on-site work on some specific issues, thus ensuring the construction process.
In 2004, the construction of Song Cheng West Road made brilliant contributions to Zhaoqing's urban construction. After the opening, Song Cheng West Road is flat and spacious, with trees and flowers. The street lamps on both sides are also unique. They not only chose the luxurious modeling that combines simplicity with modernity, but also specially strengthened the density of lamp posts. Citizens and tourists can also clearly see the majestic appearance and magnificence of the ancient city wall at night, which has become a new bright spot in Zhaoqing's modern tourism development and historical and cultural excavation.
