How 交子大道JZA (Jiaozi Avenue JZA) built a National Day City Walk on Xiaohongshu
During the 2024 National Day holiday, 交子大道JZA (Jiaozi Avenue JZA) used twelve KOC-led image-and-text posts to turn markets, cultural experiences and shopping districts into a crowd-avoidance route through Chengdu Hi-Tech Zone.
A quieter City Walk, built as a route rather than a single stop
The campaign ran from 2 to 4 October 2024 around the theme "国庆小众City Walk避人挤人" (A Lesser-Known National Day City Walk to Avoid the Crowds). It linked 交子大道’s (Jiaozi Avenue’s) limited-time cultural-creative market with 铁像寺水街 (Tiexiang Temple Water Street), 玉林火烧堰巷碧翠廊 (Bicui Corridor, Huoshaoyan Lane, Yulin), 环球中心 (Global Center) and SKP, packaging food, intangible cultural heritage experiences and shopping into list-style guides. The twelve image-and-text posts used insider-tip hooks and a friendly recommendation tone. Design aesthetics, exhibitions and national-culture cues added a cultural layer, positioning the itinerary as an alternative to established crowded destinations such as Chunxi Road.
The route spoke to young women living in or visiting Chengdu, urban professionals, new mothers and families seeking a slower holiday pace. A five-day market supplied the reason to visit, with food, cultural-creative products, intangible cultural heritage activities and shopping-district discounts. Limited dates and event-only availability created urgency. There was no additional online conversion mechanism: the campaign’s call to action was an in-person visit rather than a markdown-led online purchase.

The first step to copy
- 1
Open with the crowd problem, not the venue list
Start with the "不要只知道去XX/不想人挤人" ("Don't only go to XX / I don't want to be packed in with crowds") hook. Present the lesser-known route as useful insider knowledge for a specific holiday, then make the limited-time market and surrounding stops the answer to that travel problem.
