High street意思

"High street" is a term used in the United Kingdom and some Commonwealth countries to refer to the main street in a town or city, which is usually the location of the town's or city's primary retail and commercial district. It is often synonymous with the downtown or central business district of a place. The term "high street" specifically refers to the main shopping street in a town or city, where one can find a variety of shops, restaurants, and other businesses.

In some cases, the term "high street" may also be used more broadly to refer to the retail sector as a whole in the UK, and discussions about the health of the "high street" often focus on the success or failure of brick-and-mortar retail businesses in the face of competition from online retailers.
