Transforming 1.5km of Shenzhen mudflats into Greater Bay Area's premier coastal destination. This central axis of the "mountain-sea-city" ecological landscape weaves together Qianhai Surge landmark and Starry Sky Lawn, creating diverse waterfront experiences through innovative ecological revetments and 260m grand staircase. Three revetment typologies breathe with tides: emerald waves on the seawalls at high tide, golden beaches and mangrove sanctuaries at low. From daily walks to cultural festivals, this multifaceted shoreline positions Qianhai as the international "Sea Cover of the Bay Area."
