Located in west Shekou Peninsula in Shenzhen, Qianwan Park is strategically located in the main economic axis of the Pearl River Delta region, adjacent to Hong Kong and Macau. Qianwan Park is connected to Qianhai Bay to the west and Dananshan mountain range to the southeast, making it an important component of the Shenzhen urban landscape, where mountains and sea converge.

With a total area of 32.4 hectares, Qianwan Park features an International Harbor Gateway, Universal Urban Space, and Ecological Nature Positive Parkland. Leveraging its landscape and geographical advantages, the Park connects people and integrates innovation into an immersive multi-dimensional natural space, creating a vibrant life experience for the public. It aims to establish a new paradigm for waterfront development that coexists and thrives in harmony with the Qianhai and the Bay Area, featuring an internationally renowned ecological corridor.

Qianwan Park revolves around water as its central theme, enhancing the waterways originating from Nanshan. In the vibrant urban setting of Qianhai, it aims to enrich our quality of life and establish itself as a prominent waterfront destination. The design concept emphasises ‘dynamic water, vibrant scenery, and embracing diversity’. The Park boasts a 3km riverfront shoreline designed with diverse waterfront elements, complemented by two landscape footbridges to activate vitality on both sides of the river. With a total of 71% green coverage, the Park offers various art, culture, and dining facilities ensuring a wide range of recreational experiences. It also provides a 15,000m2 underground parking space.

The project area mainly attracts young innovators and professionals living in the region. Qianwan Park aspires to be a landmark that integrates Lingnan culture while embracing youthful perspectives and respecting nature. The design will preserve traditional culture and incorporate modern amenities, emphasizing sustainability and harmonious integration with the natural environment. To contribute to a sustainable future, the project has set a carbon neutrality goal to be achieved by 2035. The principles of sustainability and nature-positive designs are exemplified in the signature landmark building - Nature+ Centre and the concept of ‘symbiosis’ underpins the ecological enhancement strategies in Qianwan Park.
