Situated at the southern end of the city's central axis, this venue was designed as a Lingnan-style garden. The buildings are scattered around the Haizhu lake like stones and assembled into various courtyards, forming a layout of "a garden within a garden". Meanwhile, the typical landscape elements of the Lingnan region, "mountains, rivers, fields, and ponds", are integrated into the design of the venue.
