About Deng Yun Li Art Park Public Space and Business Development
Deng Yun Li Art Park is a public park of 40000 square meters in Suzhou, China. The design draws on the natural scenery and cultural heritage of the region. Flowing water features and sculptural stones recall local canal landscapes within a modern commercial setting. An interactive water canal guides visitors from the entrance to the central plaza, where a three part water sculpture rises from the ground as a focal art piece. A small art gallery and tea area form a quieter zone for relaxation.
