Aedas Wins Competition for Dragon/Phoenix-Inspired Transportation Hub in Sanya, China

Aedas has been selected as the winner of a competition for a new mixed-use tourist and transportation hub in Sanya, China. To be located in front of the existing Sanya High-Speed Railway Station, the Sanya Integrated Commercial and Transportation Hub will feature a variety of public program elements serving visitors to the city.

The design of the complex has been inspired by forms of the Chinese dragon and phoenix. On the ground level, a retail podium will be accessed through an interior shopping street/village. Other elements will include a hotel, serviced apartments, a wedding and event hall, a cinema, a children’s playground and a sky garden, all linked together via a continuous canopy system.

The complex will be linked to the nearby rail and train stations, as well as the bus terminal, making it easily accessible to the public, and will be integrated into the masterplan for the area, envisioned by Aedas in 2012.
