CENTURY-OLD GUANGZHOU RAILWAY STATION REOPENS AFTER RENOVATIONS

百年历史的广州火车站翻修后重新开放

Guangzhou Baiyun Railway Station reopened this morning after being closed more than three years for renovations. It will serve as another transportation hub in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. Zhang Hong has more.

广州白云火车站在关闭三年多进行翻修后，于今天上午重新开放。它将成为广东-香港-澳门大湾区的另一个交通枢纽。请张泓带来更多咨询。

The first train departed from Guangzhou Baiyun Station at 8:35am today and arrived more than 2 hours later in Shantou City. The new station is an upgrade and expansion of Tangxi Station, which was built in 1916. The station has been redesigned to resemble a blooming kapok, the city flower of Guangzhou.

首班列车于今天上午8时35分从广州白云站开出，2个多小时后抵达汕头市。新站是建于1916年的棠溪站的升级扩建。车站经过重新设计，看起来像盛开的木棉花，广州的市花。

Voice of Liu Jun, Chief Engineer

Baiyun Station Project

Each steel beam weighs 90 tons. The longest one is 28 meters. We used building information modeling and 3D laser scanning technologies to install the steel structures precisely.

单个花瓣钢结构重量达90吨##最大悬挑长度有28米弯曲度很高##我们通过运用BIM（建筑信息模型）技术##三维激光扫描技术等一系列##数字化建造技术的运用##成功实现这个花瓣钢结构的精准定位和吊装##

The 7-story railway station has a 40,000-square-meter waiting hall that can accommodate up to 15,000 people. With 24 inbound and outbound lines and 21 passenger platforms, the railway station will handle 18 passenger trains per day during its initial reopening stage. It will serve many major routes including the Beijing-Guangzhou high-speed railway, Beijing-Guangzhou railway, Guangzhou-Meizhou梅州-Shantou railway, and Guangzhou-Maoming railway.

铁路。

SHANGHAI TO OPEN MORE PUBLIC GREEN SPACES

上海将向公众开放更多绿地

A small garden area at 457 North Shaanxi Road is now open to the public after being closed several months for renovations. The green space also has some history to it as the office of the Shanghai Dictionary Publishing House was built here in 1928. It's now classified as an outstanding historical building. Reporter Zhang Yue finds out more.

陕西北路457号的一个小花园区在关闭数月进行翻修后，现已向公众开放。这片绿地也有一些历史，因为1928年上海辞书出版社的办公室就建在这里。它现在被列为上海优秀历史建筑。记者张乐了解更多。

Egyptian expat George has lived in Shanghai for seven years. He loves to take a walk with his family in this area on North Shaanxi Road. It was closed off to the public in the past, but now people are able to see old magnolias trees, plants, a pond, benches, and pergolas.

埃及的乔治已经在上海生活了七年。他喜欢和家人在陕西北路的这个地区散步。它过去不对公众开放，但现在人们可以看到古老的木兰树、植物、池塘、长椅和凉棚。

I didn't expect it to happen this way and it's pretty well done like in the beginning when they started the construction. I didn't know it's going to be open for public and it's going to be done in pretty nice ways such as happening.

我没想到会这样，而且像刚开始施工时一样做得很好。我不知道它会对公众开放，而且会以非常好的方式进行，比如现在发生的这样。

The main building is a neoclassical style garden house designed by Hungarian architect László Hudec. The entire area covers 10,000 square meters, of which nearly a third is a garden.

主楼是一座新古典主义风格的花园住宅，由匈牙利建筑师LászlóHudec设计。整个区域占地10000平方米，其中近三分之一是花园。

I've seen a lot of improvements about that like you can see it in so many places. You can tell that there is a lot of hard work going into that to make it pretty well designed as well.

我已经看到了很多改进，就像你在很多地方看到的那样。你可以看出，要使它设计得很好，还需要付出很多艰苦的工作。

What makes George even happier is that he was named a Citizen Forest Chief. Jing'an District officials introduced the idea last year to encourage more residents to use their free time to participate in voluntary forest patrols and environmental protection activities in nearby parks and green spaces.

让乔治更高兴的是，他被任命为公民市民林长。静安区官员去年提出了这一想法，鼓励更多居民利用空闲时间参加附近公园和绿地的森林义务巡逻和环保活动。

The 1,000 square-meter green space along the street is open to the public around the clock. The other 2,000 square meters inside can be adjusted to accommodate various demands. The garden will be available for fashion shows and art performances in the future.

考虑到办公的需求这个草坪将来还有一些文化演艺或者走秀的使用功能外面一千平米左右的花园是24小时全天候对外开放整个面积三千（平方米）里面两千（平方米）左右是可开可合的兼顾各方需求。花园绿地在开放方式上采取分区开放模式，其中沿街的千平绿地花园将向市民全天候开放；艺术文化产业园区运营的花园绿地，按园区活动需求采取可开可闭的模式，既确保文化产业园区的特色，又实现了开放共享的社会价值。

Last year, 21 government and public institutions across Jing'an have piloted the opening and sharing of green spaces, with approximately 190,000 square meters of open green space and 9 pocket parks transformed. By the end of 2025, about 1 million square meters of space is expected to be converted into more than 35 pocket parks.

去年，静安21家政府和公共机构试点开放共享绿地，改造开放绿地约19万平方米，改造口袋公园9个。到2025年底，预计将有约100万平方米的空间改造成35个以上的袖珍公园。
