Yingze Street (Chinese: 迎泽大街; pinyin: YÍngzé dàjiē) is one of the main streets which was first constructed in 1956 in Taiyuan, Shanxi, China. It is designed to be 70 metres in width and was second to Chang’an Avenue"^[1] in Beijing at that time. It won the title of "The No.2 Street in China", "Chang'an Avenue in Taiyuan" and "The No.1 Street in Three-Jin".^[2] Yingze Street went through four additional periods of construction. Currently, it has 14 two-way motor roads (including two public transportation lanes), and two bicycle lanes, 2 pavements and 2 green areas. Yingze Street begins at Taiyuan Railway Station in the east and extends westwards to Nanhan Square crossing Fen River. It runs 10 kilometers and the western part of Fen River is called Yingze West Street. Landmarks which are situated along the street include Taiyuan Railway Station, May First Square, Yingze Park, Taiyuan Workers Cultural Palace, Yingze Hotel, Bingzhou Restaurant, China Coal Museum, Taiyuan University of Technology. Although Yangze Street is no longer the widest street in Taiyuan, it remains one of the symbols of Taiyuan.
