Multiple must-visit landmarks. Guangming Culture and Arts Center

The Guangming Cultural and Art Center opened in 2020, covering an area of 38,000 square meters. It is currently the largest and most comprehensive cultural and art center in northern Shenzhen. The building adopts the Lingnan residential courtyard style, presenting a "returning" layout combined with artificial water features, forming a landscape garden. The exterior walls and interior decoration of the art center are both dominated by a wide expanse of pure white. The layered white houses resemble undulating waves. The main entrance is a semi-circular open-air courtyard, reflecting in the water feature outside the building, forming the outline of an eye, known as "the Eye of Light". Many people must take photos here to commemorate it!

Check-in Point 1: Eye of Light

The main entrance of the art center is an open-air ground floor atrium, shaped like a cave. Underneath the entrance are layers of ripples. Outside the building, the reflection of the lake forms a clear eye, hence it is called "Eye of Light".
