Many young Chinese walk 30,000 steps a day in an attempt to maximize the short holiday. But as this hardcore (节奏较快的) travel style, called “Special Forces” tourism (“特种兵”式旅游), was taking off, an alternative trend has been gaining steam — “Citywalk”.

许多中国年轻人每天步行3万步，试图最大限度地利用这个短暂的假期。但由于这种硬核节奏较快的旅行方式飞速发展，被称为“特种兵”式旅游，另一种趋势已获得势头—“城市漫步”。

Unlike Special Forces tourism, where the aim is to hit as many famous spots as possible in the shortest amount of time, Citywalk is more about feeling the atmosphere of the city slowly. By “roaming” on foot, Citywalkers get away from internet famous hotspots (网红景点) and commercial hubs, instead seeking out interactions with locals, authentic snacks (地道小吃)，and a deeper appreciation for the history and culture of the city.

与“特种兵”式旅游的目的是在最短的时间内尽可能多地游览著名景点不同，Citywalk更多的是慢慢地感受城市的氛围。通过步行“漫游”，城市步行者远离网红景点和商业中心，而是寻求与当地人的互动，地道小吃，以及对城市历史和文化的更深入的了解。

In some cases, Citywalk is much like a food tour, with walkers carefully planning out routes with certain snack spots in mind. Seasoned (富有经验的) Citywalkers have hopped on the trend to share their own recommended routes and snack spots via social media. quickly racking up thousands of new subscribers over the past month. The addition of the group chat function to Xiaohonghu (launched in February) means Citywalk fans can chat with an influencer or expert in their city and easily connect with other new Citywalk fans.

在某些情况下，Citywalk更像是一次美食之旅，步行者会仔细规划路线，并考虑到某些小吃点。富有经验的城市步行者已经加入了这一潮流，通过社交媒体分享他们自己推荐的路线和小吃点。在过去的一个月里迅速增加了成千上万的新订户。小洪湖于今年2月上线，加入了群聊功能，这意味着Citywalk的粉丝们可以与所在城市的网红或专家聊天，并轻松与其他新的Citywalk粉丝联系。

Whilst (尽管) Citywalk can work as an approach to tourism, most of the trend’s enthusiasts are keen to reconnect with the city they live in. This post-reopening trend sees Gen Z (出生于1995-2010年的一代人) seek pleasure more through connection than consumption and signifies a deep cultural curiosity that goes beyond the Chinese iconography (图像) that typifies guochao(国潮).

尽管城市漫步可以作为一种旅游方式，但大多数爱好者都热衷于与他们居住的城市重新建立联系。这种重新开放后的趋势表明，出生于1995-2010年的一代人更多的是通过联系而不是消费来寻求快乐，这标志着一种深刻的文化好奇心，它超越了典型国潮中的中国图标和符号。
