Brief introduction of Hefei city square

The first thing you see is the "Science and Technology Axis" of the square. The "Science and Technology Axis" is a sculpture with the theme of "Life and Movement" with the square dry fountain as the opposite scene, connecting the northern section of Huayuan Street. The axis highlights the theme of science and technology with modern components such as stainless steel, touch multimedia, music fountain, clock fountain and modern lighting. The "Century Globe" with a diameter of 2 meters shows that Hefei has more and more frequent exchanges between human beings on the earth today, and friends from all corners of the country are very welcome to come here for sightseeing, leisure, tourism and investment. The "1-meter Science and Technology Gallery" is located on one side of the "Science and Technology Axis", which is composed of single steel plates. It is bright and light, and the theme composition is in the shape of "flying" in reverse arc, reflecting the theme of "development and progress" in science and technology. The 9.8-meter-high stainless steel sculpture "voyage" shows that Hefei people in the new century have confidence and ability to create a beautiful new Hefei, ride the wind and waves and sail for a bright future. The Science and Technology Gallery echoes the S-shaped "natural axis" of the square with an S-shaped awning board, which is elegant and smooth, and increases the affinity with tourists.

A large musical fountain was arranged at the intersection of the "Culture Axis" and the "Science and Technology Axis", and the ground mosaic in the fountain formed a map pattern of Hefei urban area, which was unique. The large-scale musical dry fountain has a diameter of 35 meters, and the highest spraying height can reach about 26.5 meters. Whenever the music rings, the spring dances with the change of melody, which adds a cheerful and peaceful atmosphere to the square. The flagpole of the national flag platform in the stadium is 21 meters high, which symbolizes that we have entered the 21st century.

turn right and you will come to the "natural axis" of the square. The S-shaped "natural axis" is the leisure corridor of the square, which better embodies the modern concept of taking nature as the foundation and people as the foundation. The greening landscape of the whole square strives to be complete and unified, highlighting the simple and lively features of modern city square landscape. The planning and layout is mainly based on a complete and open lawn, interspersed with smooth and coherent flower belts, and trees, shrubs and lawns are in transition at different levels. Tree species are Magnolia grandiflora, trees such as Ginkgo biloba and Osmanthus fragrans, and shrubs such as pomegranate. What is particularly creative is that some tall trees are arranged in strips along the periphery of the Bank of Communications Building to block the line of sight and dilute the uncoordinated relationship between large buildings and squares. At night, from both sides of the "natural axis", the whole square is decorated with colonnade lights and lawn lights, and the grass is blooming.

cross the stone path paved with granite and you will come to the cultural gallery. The cultural gallery is located at the southern end of the "cultural axis" of the square. The times have risen and fallen, and culture has been passed down. "Cultural Axis", as the axis of the office building of the municipal government, has arranged a series of historical and cultural sketches with distinctive characteristics, focusing on showing that the development of modern Chinese civilization can never be separated from the splendid ancient Chinese culture of 5, years. Among them, the "Famous Gallery" is the most distinctive. It is a double glass wall supported by granite columns, giving people a light, transparent and modern feeling. The most representative is the "Zhonghua source vein" complex. It is composed of three parts: the source and pulse of the wall relief, the Chinese mirror of the bronze relief (Qinglong [east] White Tiger [west] Suzaku [south] Xuanwu [north]) and the ground seal cutting "Hundred Family Names", which not only embodies the spirit of traditional culture, but also has great modern artistic taste. "Source" and "Pulse" are two symmetrical reliefs, made of bronze and stainless steel, with the seal script "Hundred Family Names" as the substrate. The combination of glass and bronze makes the work have a distinct personality. Relief and characters on the ground allow people to find their surnames and zodiac signs here. The decoration of the bronze relief of "China Mirror" clearly reflects the cultural characteristics of the Han Dynasty. Interpreting this scene, people will unconsciously merge into the square culture.

the roads around the city square are in the shape of a circular turntable, and the four roads around it are all one-way lanes. Vehicles run around the periphery of the square. People in the square flow to the surrounding business district and Garden Street through underground passages, and pedestrians and cars go their own ways. There is also a 14,5-square-meter two-story underground garage under the square, which can park 36 cars, effectively alleviating the traffic pressure.
