Three Gorges Square, located at the foot of Mount Gele, is a large urban square that integrates commerce, culture, landscape, and leisure. It is divided into four parts: the Green Art Garden, Commercial Cultural Street, Celebrity Sculpture Garden, and the Three Gorges Landscape Garden, which is the core of the square. The Three Gorges Landscape Garden condenses the majestic view of the Three Gorges Dam and showcases the beautiful scenery of the Three Gorges reservoir. Each scenic spot here is like a poem, a painting, and a melodious ballad. The surging Yangtze River rushes down from the spillway, with waves crashing against the banks, unstoppable. At this moment, we cannot forget that on December 14, 1994, at 10 a.m., the commencement of the Three Gorges Project was announced, causing a global sensation and applause!
On the left stone wall of the landscape garden, the inscription ‘Fu of Three Gorges Square’ describes the spectacular scene of the Three Gorges Square and expresses the tremendous changes that have occurred today. As stated in the inscription, ‘A true square indeed, bustling and crowded, shoulder to shoulder. Though man-made, it surpasses nature’s carving…’ On the right stone wall of the landscape garden, the low-relief sculpture titled ‘Journey Through the Three Gorges’ uses the expressive techniques of Chinese painting, with simple and smooth lines to depict the scenery along the banks of the Yangtze River. In addition, there are the Celebrity Sculpture Garden, Green Art Garden, and Commercial Cultural Street, among other parts. The design of Three Gorges Square is groundbreaking, human-centered, and themed around culture and greenery. The construction of Three Gorges Square not only provides a great place for people’s leisure, entertainment, and shopping but also adds a beautiful landscape to the historical and cultural city of Chongqing. Therefore, during holidays, Chongqing’s Three Gorges Square is filled with people and bustling with activity. The entire text is open all year round and accessible 24/7.Three Gorges Square
