Street stalls (摊位) are making a comeback in China after the government announced (宣布) its support in street stalls to the public.
Chengdu has set up at least 36, 000 street stalls since the end of May. Changchun reported that it would encourage and support the opening of night markets. Yichang in Hubei Province has allowed stores to set up roadside stalls.
In fact, street stalls are not new in China. Later, to have a more beautiful environment, many cities made strict rules over street stalls. So there were fewer and fewer street stalls.
Now, thanks to the government's support, street stalls have returned.
There are new rules for the return of street stalls. For example, people in Chengdu can only set up street stalls in special areas so that they would not affect traffic. There are also new types of street stalls. In a night market called "Anyi Night Market" in Shanghai, there are not only food sellers, but also designers and artists selling their own works. Street stalls are welcomed by the public.
