Chigang Consulate District

New houses of foreign countries consulates in Guangzhou will be moved into Chigang Consulate District. According to the plan, new consulates houses will be low-floor with courtyard gardens. 

Covering an area of 230,000 square meters the Guangzhou Chigang Consulate district is an important part of the new complex designed for foreign affairs, culture, high-end office and residency use.

15-metre High Buildings

Consulates buildings are all controlled to 15-metre high Gardens which are designed in different styles.

Chinese and Western Style Design

A celebration square will be built on the northeast of the Consulate District; on the south there will be a western-style green area; while on the north, some Lingnan-style (South China-style) gardens will be constructed.
　　
Convenient Transportations

The district enjoys universal transport conveniences as the intersection for metro line 1 and metro line 3 with many bus lines passing close-by. Also close by are Binjiang East Road, Xingang East Road, Guangzhou Avenue and other principal thoroughfares of the city. With the planned Jianghai Avenue across The Pearl River, the present The Guangzhou Bridge alone employs all the conveniences of modern traffic network and, in addition, it connects the East South Ring Highway and the South China Expressway, making it easy to reach all the larger cities in the Pearl River Delta.
