4. CITY CARD
In recent years, we have made great efforts to promote ecological transformation. Xuzhou has been successively designated as a national forest city, a national ecological garden city, a national civilized city, has won the United Nations Habitat Award, and a national Innovation Demonstration Zone for the Sustainable Development Agenda. It now has national industrial base for construction machinery, national industrial base for new energy, national industrial ecological demonstration park, national intellectual property pilot park, China innovation and entrepreneurship demonstration base for overseas talents, and Jiangsu Province international service outsourcing demonstration zone in Jiangsu Province. At present, Xuzhou has perfectly realized the gorgeous transformation from “a city with coal ash and half a city with soil” to “a city with green mountains and half a city with lakes”, and the original “military land” has become “a treasure land suitable for living and working”.
