en.Wedoany.com Reported - The "One River, Two Banks" comprehensive improvement project in Yangzhou Economic and Technological Development Zone, undertaken by China Railway No.4 Engineering Group Co., Ltd. under China Railway Group Limited, has passed completion acceptance. The core part of the project, the "Grand Canal Ark," has transitioned from the construction phase to the operational preparation phase.
The main construction content of this project is the "Grand Canal Ark," an immersive Tang Dynasty-themed cultural, commercial, and tourism complex, with a total building area of approximately 79,000 square meters. Viewed from above, the ship-shaped building is constructed along the water, extending from east to west in a three-section structure of bow, hull, and stern, facing the Tianzhong Pagoda of Gaomin Temple across the river.
As a key cultural tourism industry project in Jiangsu Province, this cultural, commercial, and tourism complex adopts the design concept of "a ship setting sail," drawing on the Sui and Tang dynasties culture, the Grand Canal culture, and Yangzhou culture. It integrates diverse business formats such as commercial boxes, characteristic streets, and theater performances, planning four themed theaters and five characteristic streets. After the project is put into operation, it will further highlight the strategic value of Yangzhou's location at the "confluence of rivers and canals," helping to improve the local multi-level cultural, commercial, and tourism industry development pattern.
During the construction process, the project technical team successively overcame three core technical difficulties: construction of large-span theater spaces, deep foundation pit support adjacent to the canal with high groundwater levels, and construction of the special dragon boat-shaped structure. They have obtained a total of 4 utility model patents and 1 invention patent, forming replicable and promotable technical achievements for waterfront building construction.
