20世纪70年代起，襄阳风华路夜市矗立于此，历经风雨洗礼，承载着几代襄阳人的记忆，充满着浓郁的市井烟火气息，也代表了这座城市最地道的夜生活风貌。8月1日起，提档升级后的风华路夜市正式开街，在原有600多米主街的基础上，将金穗巷、谷山路纳入其中，全长达到1200米，老夜市焕发出新活力。
Since its establishment in the 1970s, the Fenghua Road Night Market has stood the test of time in Xiangyang, embodying the memories of generations, and becoming a symbol of the city’s vibrant and bustling street life. The new and improved Fenghua Road Night Market was officially reopened on August 1st. Originally spanning over 600 meters, this ancient night market underwent a total makeover that extended it to a whooping 1200 meters, by incorporating the Jinsui Alley and Gushan Road.

8月16日晚，极目新闻记者前往风华路夜市一探究竟，映入眼帘的是亮化后的街道，夜市上人头攒动。在这里，市民可以尽情享受下午六点后的晚间快乐。全新升级后，谷山路新增的集装箱街区成为了新晋的网红打卡区。绚丽的灯光、时尚的装修、各具特色的美味，这里已经成为年轻人潮流打卡的宝地。据襄阳广盛和商业管理有限公司招商总监王泓力介绍，目前集装箱街区共有56个摊位，面积最大的集装箱有27平方米，能够容纳3-4桌顾客在集装箱内品尝美食。
On the evening of August 16th, a Jimu News reporter visited the Fenghua Road Night Market where the brightly lit streets were teeming with night goers. Visitors can enjoy a fun night out starting at 6 p.m., when the market comes alive. The newly added container street on Gushan Road has become a go-to for many. Complete with dazzling lights, stylish decor, and an array of delicacies, the street has become a haven for young people in search of the cool new hangouts in town. According to Wang Hongli, the investment director of Xiangyang Guangsheng and Commercial Management Co., Ltd., the container street has 56 establishments, with the largest container covering an area of 27 square meters, enough to accommodate 3-4 tables of indoor diners.
随着夜市的火爆，商家们纷纷抓住机遇，推出了与夜市主题相关且拥有襄阳本地特色的产品和服务。被评为风华路夜市“最佳特色店铺”之一的黎撰夜包子便是其中之一。黎撰夜包子是襄阳的本土品牌，包子主要分为微辣区和不辣区两部分，其中卖得最好的分别是麻辣小龙虾和香菇肉酱馅。记者走近门店窗口时，员工正娴熟地给包子“捏褶”，不过几秒钟，一个小巧玲珑的小笼包便包好了。“高峰期的时候，一晚上能卖出四五十笼。”店员向记者介绍道。
With the growing popularity of night markets, businesses have seized the opportunity by launching products and services that not only feature themes reminiscent of typical night markets, but also unique to Xiangyang. Li Zhuan steamed stuffed buns, hailed one of the “Best Featured Stores” at Fenghua Road Night Market, is one of such establishments. Li Zhuan steamed stuffed buns is a Xiangyang-based brand. Customers can choose between spicy and non-spicy buns. The spicy crayfish and mushroom meat sauce fillings are the bestselling menu items. When the reporter approached the store’s window, the employee was skillfully “folding” the steamed bun, and within a few seconds, a small yet beautifully crafted Xiaolongbao was wrapped. “During peak hours, we can sell forty to fifty baskets in one night,” the staff introduced to reporters.
如今，提档升级后的风华路夜市被赋予了全新定位，充满活力与特色的夜市环境让它成为樊城夜生活的潮流标杆。这里，将是年轻人追求时尚潮流、品味城市记忆的绝佳去处，同时也是享受美食、畅享购物、娱乐休闲、文化体验的多功能商圈，为市民和游客呈现一个丰富多彩的夜宵盛宴，让人们在享受美食的同时，也能感受到这座城市的独特魅力和深厚底蕴。
Following the face-lift, Fenghua Road Night Market has taken on a whole new role. Its lively and innovative ambience has made it a benchmark for nightlife in Fancheng. For young people, the night market will offer the best of both worlds, showcasing both the trendy and nostalgic parts of the city. Being a multifunctional commercial area, it offers fine dining, shopping, entertainment and cultural experiences. Visitors are not only enveloped by the abundant selection of mouthwatering feasts, the city’s local charm and profound heritage are also full on display.
王泓力向记者表示，现在的风华路夜市已经可以实现“一路吃遍襄阳城，一市尝得全球香”。在这里，各种美食琳琅满目，食客甚至可以喝到老挝的饮品，吃到泰国风味的炒饭。近300位摊主用他们的热情欢迎八方来客，让每一位顾客慕名而来、满意而归。
Wang Hongli told reporters that the Fenghua Road Night Market can now realize its goal of “Feast your way through Xiangyang; taste the world in one city”. Diners have an endless selection of foods, from sampling Laotian drinks to feasting on Thai style Fried Rice. With much enthusiasm, the nearly 300 vendors welcomed visitors from all corners, ensuring each of their customers left with a smile.
自2021年以来，夜市经济逐渐恢复，一头牵动着百姓的烟火气，一头连接了商业消费的热点。据樊城区米公街道办事处主任邵晨晨介绍，此次风华路夜市全方位升级，将极大激发夏日夜经济的消费活力，为城市消费增添新动能。把风华路夜市打造成特色鲜明的网红街区，进一步擦亮樊城夜经济新名片。
Since 2021, the night market economy has been gradually recovering, and it this growth that is now empowering the locals’ livelihoods and integrating recent trends in commercial consumption. According to Shao Chenchen, director of Migong Street Office in Fancheng District, the comprehensive upgrade of Fenghua Road Night Market will significantly boost consumption during summer evenings, benefiting both the night economy as well as overall consumption in the city. By transforming Fenghua Road Night Market into a hip one-stop spot for all things night markets, Fancheng City continues to garner accolades for its night economy.
