From

waterfront
spaces
have
played
an
increasingly
pivotal

waterfront
economic
zone.
In
the
future,
the
Ba
River
and
Liangma
River
within

With its rich water resources, Chaoyang District in Beijing has embraced the principles of extensive urban renewal and large-scale accessibility. Through the restoration of its rivers, it has revitalized urban spaces and created 23 kilometers of beautifully designed scenic corridors along the Empress Dowager Xiao River, Liangma River, Ba River, and Tonghui Canal. These efforts have boosted activity along the banks, revitalized industries, and spurred consumption. The Liangma River has now become a hallmark destination, while the Tonghui Canal, Ba River, and Beixiao River have also undergone significant transformations.
Building on this foundation, Chaoyang District aims to accelerate the implementation of new and reserve projects by 2025, creating and shaping a world-class “Two Rivers, One Belt” waterfront economic zone.
- The Two Rivers: Efforts will be made to enhance the brand influence of the Liangma River and Ba River. The Liangma River’s international riverside charm will be further enriched, with improvements from the Fourth Ring Road to the Ba River section, opening a 22-kilometer scenic cruise route along the Liangma River. Construction along the Ba River will also be expedited, with the full opening of the Jiuxianqiao Road to Langyuan section. Renovation will extend from Langyuan East to Xingba Road, creating a 15-kilometer yacht route along the Ba River, connecting to the city’s sub-center.
- The One Belt: The plan focuses on enhancing and strengthening the Liangma River Cultural and Economic Belt. Phase three of the Liangma River cruise route (3 kilometers from Blue Harbor Marina to South Lake in Chaoyang Park) will be accelerated. Key commercial projects, such as the Sina Weibo Esports Center in Chaoyang Park, No.8 Manor, and the Ferris wheel, will be fast-tracked. The Liuliwan area will be carefully developed to connect five major commercial zones—Sanlitun, Yansha, Blue Harbor, Liuliwan, and Langyuan—forming a diversified, multifunctional urban district.
In the future, this area is set to become a more dynamic and vibrant world-class waterfront economic zone. Chaoyang District remains committed to openness and collaboration, forging connections with the world and its people. We look forward to welcoming you to share in its promising future.
