History

Using a small lot of land reserved, the cultural park was established there. It was opened in June 2012 after three years of renovation works.[2]

The park spans over an area of 3.42 hectares.[3] It consists of Gaozi Tower Revolving Restaurant, exhibition hall, outdoor exhibition area, sky walk, pier and waiting Room and ocean front platform.
