Xiaoshan

Xiaoshan (蕭山), a district of the city of Hangzhou, located in Zhejiang province in China. Xiaoshan was formerly a city in its own right, but was absorbed in recent years by its much larger neighbor and made into an administrative district of Hangzhou. The Hangzhou municipal government is undertaking plans to move its headquarters from central Hangzhou to new facilities in Xiaoshan.

Hangzhou's international airport, Hangzhou Xiaoshan International Airport, is located here. The area is also at the epicenter of one of China's local real estate booms, as the demand for newer, more upscale housing by China's growing middle and upper classes has led to an explosion in construction of new high-rise residential towers and Western-style condominium developments in Xiaoshan.
