拱墅运河体育公园

Gongshu Canal Sports Park, also called the Canal Asian Games Park, occupies the Shenhua block of Gongshu District, Hangzhou, bounded by Xueyuan North Road to the east, Fengtan Road to the west, Shenhua Road to the south and Liuxiang Road to the north. Covering 701 mu (about 467,000 sqm) with some 185,000 sqm of floor area, it staged table tennis, breaking and hockey at the 19th Asian Games and is the only newly built Asian Games venue cluster in the city's central districts, as well as Zhejiang's first urban sports park to combine a gymnasium, parkland, playing fields and commercial space. The layout follows a south hall and north field pattern. The gymnasium to the south takes the form of a Liangzhu jade cong, with about 22,000 sqm of floor area, 6,852 seats and a cost of roughly 497 million yuan; it hosted table tennis and breaking, and its warm-up hall has become a public fitness centre. The stadium to the north, shaped like an oil-paper umbrella and nicknamed the Hangzhou Umbrella, held the hockey. Between them run a 1,609 m landscaped spine, a four-kilometre loop track and a 3.6 km flower-god route, a 14,000 sqm fitness centre, Sanye Lake, Shenhua Plaza, a children's playground and about 14,000 sqm of shops; the original Beizhuang and Yongxing rivers keep their courses, and more than 4,000 trees, including rare Glyptostrobus and Sinowilsonia, fill the grounds. The site was the Huayuangang urban village until work began in early 2019; the main structure passed inspection in June 2021 and the park opened that December, with Dutch practice Archi-Tectonics among the planners. During the Games it also hosted table tennis and blind football at the Asian Para Games, drawing up to 50,000 visitors a day at peak, and the project won a Luban Prize.
