Zhongshan Park: The City’s Heart Beneath a Century of Green

Xiamen Zhongshan Park, established in 1927 to commemorate Dr Sun Yat‑sen, is a well‑known city park that blends historic charm with everyday life. The park’s lush banyan trees form a sprawling canopy, while clear lake waters mirror elegant pavilions and arched bridges. Winding paths evoke the classic appeal of Jiangnan‑style gardens, and open lawns provide space for public recreation. Serving as the city's green lung, the park is also a living testament to Xiamen’s century‑old local customs and culture.
