China's Ministry of Culture and Tourism has included Changning District's Yuyuan art and lifestyle block in its second batch of nation-level tourism and leisure blocks.
The block at the heart of Yuyuan Road's historic and cultural district is a shining example of urban renewal.
At this century-old historical and cultural block, a number of art venues and small shops are concentrated, fusing culture, art and lifestyle.
It is also the former home of missile and space scientist Qian Xuesen.
It captures the essence of local culture and tourism innovation, as well as historical significance.

According to the criteria for such blocks released by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism and the National Development and Reform Commission of China, the accommodations together can meet the tourism and leisure demands of tourists and residents.
