The park sits at the southern end of Changchun’s Renmin Street, and features modern sculptures, aiming to showcase these sculptures against a backdrop of traditional landscapes in park construction. The park was designed by famous companies in China and abroad.
The park is home to more than 320 sculptures by more than 270 artists from 110 countries. They cover various artistic styles and feature natural mountains and rivers.
