As the first phase of the overall master plan, the central park initiates a rehearsal for the variegated communal lives of the involved neighborhood.

As an experiment, the proposed landscape design aims to establish a new strategy of garden city design China’s developing cities in China.

The park serves as a transit hub for the city’s Changbei National Airport, the International Wharf, and Ganjiang New District. Therefore, as the pivot point for the practical and cultural lives in Nanchang, the park represents the identity of the city. Jingkai Central Park is the keystone of the Garden City of Nanchang, which planned urban development with “a green space every 300 meters and a garden every 500 meters”.
