Lianhua Road in Zhuhai

Lights and feasts in the bustling night.

Lianhua Road, for many Zhuhai people, used to be a place of feasting. It was once described as "a famous commercial street in downtown Gongbei, Zhuhai". It is also described by words such as "the earliest commercial center", "an important window for opening to the outside world" and "longan, the pearl of South Guangdong", which shows the glory of the past.

Some people say that ten years ago, the bustling crowd on the road crowded to walk, and it was difficult to walk faster. It is very lively and prosperous. There are all kinds of clothing stores on Lianhua Road, one is closed, the other is opened, and it is crowded with students and brothers who come to search for fashionable goods. More than 30 yuan can have a fashionable dress and shoes at that time. Small shop owners seem to have their own sharp teeth and sharp mouths, and the voice of bargaining is endless.

In fact, the good fortune of Lianhua Road at that time was closely related to economic development. After the establishment of Zhuhai Special Economic Zone, many businessmen from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan came to invest in Zhuhai, and Gongbei area once became a hot spot for investment. In addition, some businessmen who need to transit in Macao often stay in Gongbei for a day or two. Shopping, catering, accommodation, entertainment and other services on Lianhua Road are becoming more and more prosperous, and many places are open all night.

In the middle of Lianhua Road, there is an open-air bar. In the early 1990s, women wearing sexy clothes were often seen, and Lianhua Road was once entangled in ambiguity.

Food and color are also good. Besides glitz, for most people, the food on Lotus Road is its second attraction.
