杭州奥体博览城

Hangzhou Olympic Sports Expo City lies on the south bank of the Qiantang River, straddling the boundary between Binjiang and Xiaoshan districts along the Qijia River and facing Qianjiang New City across the water. It is a large urban complex built around sport and exhibitions that also carries culture, commerce, tourism, housing, performance, leisure and shopping, made up of three parts: the Hangzhou Olympic Sports Centre, the Hangzhou International Expo Center and the Hangzhou Century Centre. Planned in 2006, launched in 2007 and begun in September 2009, it covers 5.8 sq km, of which the 154.37-hectare core holds 2.72 million sqm of floor area at a total investment of 27.18 billion yuan. Twelve projects make up that core: the main stadium, the aquatic and gymnasium halls, the expo centre, the training hall, the rebuilt Qijia lock, the Qijia River improvement with its bridges, Guanlan Road, riverside facilities and car parks, the Binsheng Road underpass, the twin towers of Hangzhou Gate, and the developments above Aoti Centre and Expo Centre metro stations. On the Binjiang bank stand the Big Lotus stadium, the Little Lotus tennis centre and three towers above Aoti Centre station; on the Xiaoshan bank are the Butterfly aquatic and gymnasium halls, the expo centre, the jade-cong training hall and the City Gate towers. The site was the main stage of the 19th Asian Games, with opening and closing ceremonies and athletics in the stadium, while the expo centre served as the main venue of the 2016 G20 summit and the Games' main press centre. Metro lines 6 and 7 stop at Aoti Centre and line 6 at Expo Centre, and riverside walks link the venues to Qianjiang Century Park.
