The project has two parts: the City Entrance and the Landscape Leisure Trail. The entrance was transformed from a residential building. the original building materials are retained and I-beam external glass is applied to protect the urban texture. The trail follows the mountain and integrates the vertical height difference of 80 meters in sections, which minimizes the impact on the urban interface. The design echoes the modern station and floats over the hills with high transparency. It connects to the ground with a point-like manner to minimize the damage to the existing vegetation.
