A |     近日，“老城烟火气·休闲最临平”新消费场景共创行动在杭州市临平区临平街道举行。    (ECNS) -- China has expanded its 240-hour visa-free transit policy to citizens of Kyrgyzstan and Vietnam, bringing the number of countries covered by the policy to 57, according to the National Immigration Administration (NIA) on Wednesday.    Under the new arrangement, which took effect on Aug. 20, citizens of Kyrgyzstan and Vietnam holding ordinary passports and interline passenger tickets with confirmed dates and itineraries bound for a third country or region may enter China through any of the 65 ports across the country and stay up to 240 hours, or 10 days, without a visa, according to the National Immigration Administration (NIA).    Citizens of these two countries who hold ordinary passports will also be eligible for the 30-day visa-free entry policy for Hainan Province in south China starting the same day. This will allow them to enter the province through Hainan's open ports and stay visa-free for up to 30 days. With these additions, the number of countries covered by this Hainan visa-free policy has now reached 61.    During the visa-free period, travelers are permitted to engage in tourism, business, exchange visits and family visits. However, the two policies do not cover employment, study or journalistic activities, which still require appropriate visas, the NIA said.    An NIA official said the measures are part of efforts to advance high-level opening-up and facilitate exchanges and cooperation with neighboring countries. Looking forward, the NIA will continue to support international travel while ensuring orderly border management.    (By Intern Liu Shuagjing, Zhang Dongfang)                    。活动旨在以“烟火休闲”为主题搭建起业态供需对接平台、创新消费场景，把文化流量转化为消费增量，把零散经营主体整合为商圈发展合力，继续探索具有地方特色的老城兴商路径。近年来，临平街道以“街区党建助力老城兴商”为主线，加强街社主导、区域统筹，通过建强组织核心、优化联动共享、深化治理赋能，探索形成一条党建统领、商居共治、活力迸发的新路径，实现北大街“烟火气”和“人气”双提升。现场，临平街道发布《临平烟火休闲地图》，邀约创业者共同提升商圈能级，还推出三大助企兴商举措，以完整、实在、落地的扶持政策为所有经营主体提供坚实保障。活动期间还举行了“共话临平烟火休闲经济”圆桌会，同时为首批“重点培育烟火休闲小馆”授牌，聘任首批“烟火休闲临平观察员”。
