About this project:
The design of the boulevard and plaza consists of asymmetric lanes and botanical gardens. Along the Century Avenue, sculptures on the subject of "time" are on display that include a monumental scale artwork entitled "Oriental Light" on a traffic island at the crossing of the Yanggao Rd. and Century Blvd. and the sculptures based upon ancient timing instruments entitled "Time of the Day" and "Wu Xing" that are located nearby. Century Promenade is one of Shanghai's best new public spaces. It is a walkway that connects Century Plaza to Century Park.
