About this audio guide
This guide to Guixi Ecological Park in Chengdu opens in August 2025, when the World Games brought a disc golf course to its trees and fields, then turns its attention to the ground the crowds ignored. You'll hear about a park opened in October 2016, built roughly ten times the size of an ordinary neighborhood park and nicknamed Chengdu's Central Park. Best heard while walking its paths, with your eyes on the paving.
