commercial culture is prevalent in ningbo, reflected in the naming of many local areas. next to lingqiao bridge, a north-south road connects yaohang street and zhongshan east road. this is chejiao street. not until the late qing dynasty (1840-1912) did it change from its original name, “cheqiao street”.
the yin county annals first cited "chejiao (car and sedan chairs)" prior to 1949 and this road was then officially named chejiao street. a "pengfei" car dealership was said to dwell at the intersection, which used to be a sedan chair dealer. at that time, a collection of chinese paintings was exported abroad and drew the attention of several japanese scholars longing for a glimpse of the famous chejiao street in ningbo.
