The second-stage construction project of Liangjiang Minguo Street and renovation work of the street’s first-stage project take place from Sept 1 to Dec 31.
The street will be closed for the duration of four months to ensure the safety of tourists. It will reopen to the public on New Year's Day of 2016, as scheduled by the Liangjiang administrative committee.
Despite the current rainy season in Liangjiang, construction organizations are determined to overcome any difficulties in the weather to carry forward the construction process.
Minguo Street is located in the Liangjiang International Studio City in Chongqing's Liangjiang New Area. The total construction area involved in the second-stage construction process of Liangjiang Minguo Street will be around 10 hectares, including three hectares of underground construction works.
The second-stage project around Minguo Street will put more focus on visitor entertainment and experience. Visitors will be able to experience the culture and scenery of the Minguo period (1912-1949) after the project is completed. A professional film group will record period dramas on the street and visitors will be able to wear traditional costumes from the Minguo period, as well as participate in some roles in the drama.
