Parc Central was celebrated as one of Benoy’s biggest openings in 2016. Set in the heart of Guangzhou’s new Central Business District, the development established a new typology for the Pearl River Delta city; a green ‘Stadium for Retail’ which uniquely blends a low-rise shopping scheme within a multi-level parkland.

Guangzhou

Guangzhou known historically as Canton or less commonly as Kwangchow, is the capital and largest city of Guangdong province, People’s Republic of China. Located on the Pearl River, about 120 km (75 mi) north-northwest of Hong Kong and north-northeast of Macau, Guangzhou is a key national transportation hub and trading port. One of the five National Central Cities, it holds sub-provincial administrative status.

It is the third largest Chinese city and southern China’s largest city. As of the 2010 census, the city had a population of 12.78 million. Some estimates place the population of the entire Pearl River Delta Mega City built up area as high as 40 million including Shenzhen (10.36 million), Dongguan (8.22 million) and most parts of Foshan (7.19 million), Jiangmen (4.45 million), Zhongshan (3.12 million) and a small part of Huizhou adjoining Dongguan and Shenzhen, with an area of about 20,000 square kilometres (7,700 sq mi).
