Xinjiekou, Nanjing

Xinjiekou (Chinese: 新街口; pinyin: Xīnjiēkǒu) is the central business district of Nanjing, People's Republic of China.

In ancient times, it was only a quiet and lonely street with much empty space and a pond.

On the grounds of the new traffic circle, Xinjiekou became the newly developing commercial center.

Nanjing Xinjiekou Department Store Company will buy an 89 percent stake in Highland Group Holdings Ltd, which owns the U.K. department store chain House of Fraser.

[1] As the CBD of Nanjing, Xinjiekou has many economic institutions, consulting corporations, law offices, accounting firms, and corporate headquarters—with the largest number of offices in Nanjing, including 80 business enterprises among the top 500 global corporations.
