In the heart of Wenzhou's Lucheng district, Danan sub-district has emerged as a vibrant hub seamlessly intertwining history, culture, and a commitment to green living.

The historical Xunshan pagoda, dating back to the Song Dynasty (960-1279), has been adorned with lights since September 2020. This visual spectacle, complemented by modern landmarks like the Wenzhou World Trade Center Mansion and Union Plaza, beautifully encapsulates a century-spanning fusion.

The sub-district's cultural initiatives extend beyond visuals and skylines, with efforts to create 15-minute quality cultural life circles. This kind of life-circle typically include spaces like parks, museums, galleries, and entertainment and sports facilities.
