The Miaojing River Corridor in West Kunshan is the transformation of a historically preserved waterway into 6 km of ecological infrastructure in the form of a public linear park. The project aims to drive the green infrastructure development of Kunshan West with the Miaojing River as the central axis of abundant ecological value and recreational programs for surrounding communities. Anchoring the framework of Kunshan West, the vision is to designate Miaojing River as an invaluable natural resource for the future of Kunshan.
