Yidong Expressway Niansanli Entrance: Where Climbing Roses Meet "Feather Flies to the Sky"

Highway entrances on the edge of a city are an important window into the city's level of civilization. To improve the city's appearance, Yiwu City attaches great importance to the greening and beautification of highway entrances within its borders. The Yidong Expressway Niansanli entrance and exit originally featured landscapes such as Angela climbing rose walls, terraced canola flowers, verbena flower seas, and the "Feather Flies to the Sky" sculpture. Although canola flowers and verbena are no longer planted, the climbing rose walls and the "Feather Flies to the Sky" sculpture still create a beautiful early summer scene. Around the "Feather Flies to the Sky" sculpture and in the middle of Shangcheng Avenue, the 1,000-meter-long Angela climbing rose walls exude tenderness and romance, making the three "feathers" made of stainless steel even more majestic. Perhaps only the people of Yiwu would think of erecting a sculpture for ordinary chicken feathers. Niansanli Street is named "Niansanli" because it is 23 Chinese miles away from the main urban area of Yiwu City, the main urban area of Dongyang City, and Suxi Town, Yiwu. It is the birthplace of China's small commodity market, and the practice of "chicken feathers for sugar" can be traced back to the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. Yiwu's ability to become the international commercial city it is today stems from the legendary story of "chicken feathers flying to the sky." 📍Detailed address: Yidong Expressway Niansanli Entrance, Yiwu City, Zhejiang Province
