The renovation of the old buildings in the seaside courtyard of the 1898 Dock of Qinhuangdao Port coincided with the selection of the site for the Second Hebei Conference of Tourism Industry Development in 2017. The designers aimed to connect the tourism resources of the southern port and the northern mountain villages, forming vertical tourism line with the theme "Mountain and Sea–A Covenant of Salt". Converting the mechanic workshop into a wedding-theme garden, the design team was faced with the problem of combining the industrial history of the site and the theme of brilliant urban life.
