Jiangfu Park

　　Jiangfu Park is situated on the eastern side of Jiangtai area in Chaoyang District and is one of the parks under Beijing’s Green Belt Isolation Zone project. It was a significant component of the 58 key livelihood projects directly related to people's lives, as prioritized by the municipal Party committee and government in 2007. The park has a planned area of 58 hectares and was implemented in two phases starting from 2007. The first phase, covering 24 hectares, was completed and opened to the public in April 2008. Since its completion, Jiangfu Park has become the largest green space in the electronics city, Jiuxianqiao, and Jiangtai areas, enriching the urban functions of the region, enhancing its environmental image, and providing residents with a beautiful environment for leisure, fitness, and recreation.

　　The design of Jiangfu Park takes full advantage of the existing woodland conditions and taps into the cultural heritage of the Jiangtai area. It incorporates a variety of activities suitable for natural environments, such as leisure, fitness, entertainment, experiential learning, science education, and sightseeing, while also providing necessary supporting facilities to meet diverse recreational needs of residents. The park is divided into six major functional zones: the Camel Barn Cultural Leisure Area, Woodland Leisure and Sightseeing Area, Jiangtai Waterscape Leisure Area, Baha River Waterfront Viewing Area, Ball Sports Area, and Beijing-flavor Cultural Activity Area. The construction of Jiangfu Park embodies the guiding philosophy of “unearthing Jiangtai culture, building a park brand, and serving local residents.” The main entrance of the park begins with a thick, thread-bound edition of the “Jiangfu Park Storybook,” drawing visitors into a world of historical tales. Throughout the park, efforts have been made to highlight the cultural richness of Jiangtai—such as through a large mural wall depicting the “Legend of Jiuxianqiao Bridge,” which narrates the beautiful legend of the bridge; the bluish-gray General’s Platform subtly evokes visions of King Zhao of Yan appointing generals in ancient times; and the Camel Barn Path and Camel Shadow Trail recount the origin of the area’s name, Camel Barn Camp Village, as well as the bustling scene of grain boats once navigating the Baha River. The entire park exudes a rich historical and cultural atmosphere.

　　The development of Jiangfu Park adheres to the principles of prioritizing ecology, emphasizing a suburban feel, and maintaining natural harmony. Based on the original woodland, it maximizes the protection and utilization of existing forest resources. In line with the requirements of planting suitable tree species locally and enhancing biodiversity, native trees are primarily used to optimize the forest structure. Consideration is given to spatial arrangement of plants, seasonal changes, natural landscapes, and ecological functions. The goal is to create a backyard garden for the electronics city, Jiuxianqiao, Jiangtai area, and even the Wangjing area—offering residents a memorable place for leisure, fitness, and recreation, and making it a valuable green asset for the general public.
