The park is located beside Bai'e Tan in Liwan District, neighbouring the warehouse area of docks of foreign companies on the back course of the Pearl River. In the park, there is a wide and tall soviet-style factory buildings built in 1960s with a natural and smooth architectural style. According to the urban planning, after its reconstruction, the park shows an appealing picture with tens of old banyans, and wood bridges, Bai'e Tan water as well as cultural and natural landscapes.
Based on the old style of architecture, the park is injected with the concept of business and leisure featured Lingnan culture. Now the park has become a cluster of cultural enterprises with artist studio, worker museum, celebrity club, gallery, bar, multi-functional exhibition hall, business center and apartment hotel.
The park gives you a sense of tranquility and elegance. Unlike the other creative parks, you can feel a static flowing creek of creativity and culture in Xinyi. Stepping on the stone path with creel-shaped lamps hanging at both sides, seeing the old red houses with wrecked windows where vines straggling over the mottled walls, you will feel rather comfortable and peaceful. Then you can see a special sculpture-an ancient Chinese kongfu master in long gown is stretching out his arms to compete with a steel robot wearing boxing gloves-a low-profile but shocking picture to show the strong contrast between the ancient and the present, China and the West. Walking forward to the riverside, you can see the Taikoo Dockyard with bourgeois sentiment over the river while Xinyi Park is a totally different place with elegance. You can also see a special dynamic picture displayed by a static miniature of amusement park with bright color and up-and-down merry-go-round in the show case of the neighbouring Ogilvy & Mater.
