XIONG'AN, April 1 (Xinhua) -- Dubbed a "city of the future," Xiong'an New Area marks its sixth anniversary on Saturday.
On April 1, 2017, China announced plans to establish Xiong'an New Area, located about 100 kilometers southwest of Beijing. The aim was to build a green city on an area of 1,770 square kilometers, featuring innovation and providing a national model of high-quality development.
The construction of Xiong'an has proceeded at full throttle over the past six years. Since China announced plans to establish the city in 2017, the Xiong'an New Area has completed more than 510 billion yuan (about 74 billion U.S. dollars) of investment, with a total development area covering 120 square kilometers and 3,500-plus buildings towering above the land.
