Architectural features:
The whole project symbolizes the spirit of "sailing and sailing" in Chongqing and interprets the magnificent momentum of "ancient Chongqing Xiongguan", which will become a landmark building in Chongqing after completion. Among them, the design concept of the six towers originated from the shipping culture of Chongqing, and they were transformed into strong sails on the river with the heights of 350 meters and 250 meters respectively.
The highlight of the project design is the 300-meter-long "Crystal Corridor", which connects four towers and is located at the height of 60 floors. Its crystal-clear glass structure brings public space and urban gardens over Chongqing, and within the covered bridge, Chongqing's river and mountain views will be panoramic.
