The beach is located along the Bohai Sea shoreline of Qinhuangdao City, a touristic coastal city in North Chinas Hebei Province, 6.4 kilometers in length and an area of 60 hectares. The whole site was in an environmentally and ecologically damaged condition. The coastal sand dunes were heavily eroded, the coastal vegetation was decaying and the beach was deserted and littered. Prior unwise development had destroyed the coastal wetland and left it full of debris.
The intention of this project is to rehabilitate the damaged natural environment, restore and unveil to tourists and local residents the beauty of the site while transforming a former degraded beach into an ecologically healthy and aesthetically attractive landscape.
