Chongqing Lijia-Yuelai Smart Park

Chongqing, PRC

Located in Chongqing’s Liangjiang New Area, the Lijia-Yuelai Smart Park City covers a planned area of approximately 4,900 hectares. Situated adjacent to the Jialing River, it boasts a 30-kilometre continuous riverfront, where the river flows through mountains, forming a unique Chongqing terrace landscape. The integration of smart technologies and application scenarios is embedded within the natural landscape features, giving Lijia-Yuelai Smart Park City the strong feature of Chongqing’s “Smart Scenic Gateway”, a showcase of the city’s vision as a smart metropolis.

The design proposes four key strategies: “Smart Hub, Smart Living Quarters, Intelligent Road Network, and Low-Carbon Development.” These strategies integrate smart technology that will be applied to diverse urban scenarios to create fully immersive, city-wide smart experiences across living, working, tourism, leisure, and shopping. The plan also introduces three showcase transit lines that blend natural and cultural features with intelligent systems, forming vibrant, year-round, all-day urban places, and establishing a convenient, human-centred, and community-oriented smart lifestyle environment.
