Guixi Ecological Park

This guide to Guixi Ecological Park in Chengdu opens with the World Games' disc golf tournament rolling through in August 2025, then drops beneath the players' feet to explain how the park's rooftops, plazas and paths are engineered to soak up rain rather than shed it. It traces the park back to its 2016 opening in Chengdu's high-tech zone, and the deliberate decision to build it enormous, split into east and west halves by Tianfu Avenue and stitched together by a single long footbridge. Stand on that footbridge to feel just how much ground this so-called Central Park of Chengdu covers.
