The old night market has returned, and the new night market has appeared. Shanghai in early summer has more places to go.

　　You must not miss Yu Garden when you come to Shanghai, and you must not miss the night of Yu Garden when you come to Yu Garden. At 7 p.m. on June 6, the reporter saw at the "6:30" Yuyuan Night Market that a large number of people had come to occupy a place early to see the boat show.

　　The Jiuquqiao Lake Pavilion is the central area of ​​the Yu Garden. The boat show here takes place three times a day. The boatman sets out from the Lake Pavilion with folk performers dressed in Han suits, traverses the lake counterclockwise, and the follower lights freeze the hull. The gorgeous shadows in the waves swayed in my heart, like an elegant Jiangnan night scroll.

　　"Jinyiwei Parade" is a newly added feature of Yuyuan Night Market. These "cross-knife swords" are the security personnel of Yuyuan Mall. When they are on duty, they can keep you safe; when performing, they can smile.

　　Markets, performing arts, light shows... The return of Yuyuan Night Market has made many people who come here for fun.

　　[Same period] (Shanghai public Dai Jiaqi) I haven’t visited the night market in about half a year because I am a resident of the old city, but I really look forward to more and more such activities. (Performance) Combining the integration of traditional culture and modern technology, I think it will give you a new experience.

　　[Explanation] At 8 o'clock that evening, a brand-new pedestrian street with different periods of time-"The Bund Maple Trail" also landed on the Bund, which adds another bright color to the Shanghai night sky.

　　According to reports, "The Bund Maple Trail" has joined hands with more than 110 brand merchants, presenting six major segments of social, gourmet, performing arts, cultural and creative, games, and bars, and presenting diverse consumption scenarios.

　　[Same period] (Yang Bokai, person in charge of "The Bund Maple Trail") Our entire pedestrian street food, we include Italian food, our Japanese food, German food, including our Spanish food, Mexican food, and finally our Chinese Food should be a feast for the taste. We should have a different experience every month, and it should be a new change that comes often.

　　[Commentary] Blowing the river wind to listen to music and watch performances is also an essential item to enjoy the Bund night market. "The Bund Maple Trail" arranges rich performing arts activities throughout the day. Art relaxes the body and mind and makes it a good place to nourish weekend life.

　　[Same period] (Du Qinzheng, a Shanghai citizen) This is pretty good, that is, one can shake after a meal at night. During the epidemic, everyone did not come out at home, and now it is quite lively. It feels that the whole society and the whole life have returned to normal. (Night market) It's easier to talk like this, closer to the people, and more grounded. In shopping malls, shops one by one may mean that they are not so grounded, I think.

　　[Commentary] It is understood that on the night of the first Shanghai Nightlife Festival, nearly 60 shopping malls in 12 key districts including Huangpu, Pudong, and Jingan extended their business hours to 23:00; 47 museums and art galleries were open for night sessions; 25 bookstores Participate in the late night bookstore festival and launch special events.

With the continuous launch and optimization of the iconic night markets around Shanghai, while illuminating the night economy, it has also accelerated Shanghai's pace of building an international consumer city.
