Siping Road Sub-district is one of the most vibrant communities in Yangpu. It is home to the old alleys that evoke a sense of nostalgia, and also to a future world that broadens one's horizons. The charm of the community is endless.

To immerse residents in the charm of Siping and enjoy the leisurely transition from neighborly warmth to future life, the Fuxin Road Community Neighborly Center in Siping Road Sub-district recently invited residents to join a city walk themed "Enjoy a Stroll in Siping". Each stop on the tour is a delightful discovery, captivating visitors and making them reluctant to leave.

Let's stroll down Sujiatun Road to experience the rejuvenation of the road

In this event, the participants first came to the attraction of Siping Road Sub-district, Sujiatun Road. In the old street memory photo area, they captured memorable moments with Sujiatun Road, experiencing its historical transformation.

Sujiatun Road serves as a project site for the Siping Road Sub-district's creative initiative, where community residents can engage in fitness activities, graffiti art and enjoy performance art. In the morning, one can enjoy the melodious singing and dancing of the local aunts, and watch children play at sunset. At night, joining the "night walkers" allows one to immerse in the authentic urban lifestyle.

Liu Zexu, a child, said that his favorite spot on Sujiatun Road is the colorful houses by the road. He enjoys bouncing around in them, finding it an exciting pastime that he has enjoyed from his kindergarten days up until his current third-grade year.

Discovering the wonders of science at the Rainbow Science Station

Located at CIFI Plaza, the Rainbow Science Station is the second stop of the check-in event. Here, the children were invited to engage in a variety of hands-on experiments, observe and interact with small animals, experiencing the marvels of nature firsthand.

The Rainbow Science Station is a community public welfare project demonstration point created by Tongji University's Rainbow Science Public Welfare Group in collaboration with the Siping Community Public Welfare Foundation and CIFI Plaza. The station offers a variety of professional and interesting natural science experience experiences and activities, which greatly enriches the extracurricular life of children in the community and arouses their interest in science.

Embracing the future at NICE 2035 Future Life Prototype Neighborhood

The NICE 2035 Future Life Prototype Neighborhood is the last stop of the community check-in event. Here, the participants were treated to a revitalized vision of the traditional community alley, with the presence of the ASTON MARTIN Lab making the neighborhood more innovative and international. Through VR glasses, the visitors were given a sneak peek into the convenience and delights of the future life.

After seeing the future life prototype, Liu Zexuan, a child, thought that with the current heat, it is tough for delivery personnel to work under the blazing sun. She envisioned a future where drone deliveries would be incredibly cool.

Located at Alley 1028, Siping Road, the Future Life Prototype Neighborhood, once a 200-meter-long "hidden alley", was previously dominated by small restaurants, chess and card rooms, and grocery stores, creating an environment that was "unclean, disorderly and unsightly", causing much distress to the residents. To improve the overall environment of this alley, Siping Road Sub-district leveraged the expertise of community planners to transform the alley into the NICE2035 Future Life Prototype Neighborhood, bringing in a variety of innovative labs focused on different aspects of future living. The ASTON MARTIN lab's presence not only provides a platform for diverse design and innovation courses for students, but also serves as an interactive workshop open to the public, seamlessly integrating university resources into everyday community services.

Chen Zhe, a staff member at the Fuxin Road Community Neighborhood Center, said that Siping Road Sub-district is a community rich in culture, lifestyle and technological charm. He hoped that through this walk, the participants can gain a deeper understanding of the community, and that through comparisons of old and new transformations, everyone can live better in our community.

This community check-in event is more than an exciting journey of exploration, it is a harmonious blend of technology and life. As the participants walked through the sub-district, they not only acquired scientific knowledge and experienced the charm of technology, but also developed a sense of anticipation and eagerness for the future life.
