Many studies have used housing prices on the Internet real estate information platforms as data sources, but platforms difer in the nature and quality of the data they release. However, few studies have analysed these diferences or their efect on research. In this study, second-hand neighbourhood housing prices and information on fve online real estate information platforms in Guangzhou, China, were comparatively analysed and the performance of neighbourhoods’ raw information from four for-proft online real estate information platforms was evaluated by applying the same housing price model. Te comparison results show that the ofcial second-hand residential housing prices at city and district level are generally lower than those issued on four for- proft real estate websites. -

Among all major cities, including Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Hong Kong, the Average Daily Rate (ADR) of five-star hotels shrank, and the occupancy rate dropped in Shanghai, Shenzhen and Hong Kong. Macau still managed a slight increase in ADR, but the occupancy rate fell. The weak growth trajectory of the hotel industry was further dragged down by the COVID-19 outbreak and this is expected to continue in the first half of 2020.

Social Sustainability and Redevelopment of Urban Villages in China: a Case Study of Guangzhou

The expansion of urbanized cities has started to engulf rural areas, making the urban–rural boundary less and less conspicuous in China. Urban encroachment has led to a rapid shrinkage of the rural territory as the rural–urban migration has increased due to better job opportunities and living standards in the urban cities. Urban villages, governed by a rural property rights mechanism, have started to emerge sporadically within urbanised areas. Various approaches, such as state-led, developer-led, or collective-led approaches, to redevelop these urban villages have been adopted with varying degrees of success. This paper uses a case-study framework to analyse the state–market interplay in two very different urban village redevelopment cases in Guangzhou. By an in-depth comparative analysis of the two regeneration cases in Guangzhou, which started within close proximity in terms of geographical location and timing, we are able to shed light on how completely different outcomes may result from different forms of state–market interplay. -

However, a number of previous studies are carried out only on street (town)-to-district scales, which could cause errors of the accessibility to RCFs for a family. In order to improve the resolution to individual families, we measure and compare the accessibilities to RCFs based on 3494 residential communities and 169 streets of Guangzhou in 2020 through the two-step floating catchment area (2SFCA) method. -
The Floating Community of Muslims in the Island City of Guangzhou
Island Studies Journal, 12(2), 2017, pp. 83-96 The floating community of Muslims in the island city of Guangzhou Ping Su Sun Yat-sen University, Zhuhai, China [email protected] ABSTRACT: The paper explores how Guangzhou’s urban density and hub functions have conditioned its cultural dynamics by looking specifically at the city’s Muslim community. Guangzhou’s island spatiality has influenced the development of the city’s Muslim community both historically and in the contemporary era. As a historic island port city, Guangzhou has a long-standing tradition of commerce and foreign trade, which brought to the city the first group of Muslims in China. During the Tang and Song dynasties, a large Muslim community lived in the fanfang of Guangzhou, a residential unit designated by the government for foreigners. Later, in the Ming and Qing dynasties, Hui Muslims from northern China, who were mostly soldiers, joined foreign Muslims in Guangzhou to form an extended community. However, during the Cultural Revolution, Guangzhou’s Muslim community and Islamic culture underwent severe damage. It was not until China’s period of reform and opening-up that the Muslim community in Guangzhou started to revive, thanks to the city’s rapid economic development, especially in foreign trade. This is today a floating community, lacking geographical, racial, ethnic, and national boundaries. This paper argues that Guangzhou’s island spatiality as a major port at the mouth of the Pearl River has given rise to a floating Muslim community.
