Five major districts characterize the Campus: Creating, Living, Learning, Interacting, and Working. To be developed over two phases, retail, entertainment, and community uses anchor the east side, while offices and residential towers create a distinct skyline along the west.
Smart transportation planning is at the heart of the Tencent campus, with planned roads, subways, and bridges providing strong connectivity to the surrounding district. Fast vehicular and other road traffic is confined to the inner roads, keeping it away from the waterfront.
Designed to be carbon positive over its lifetime, the campus aims to serve humanity by providing long lasting positive impact to the community and the country.
Integrated Living
The campus's residential community is composed of diverse residential options of single units, family units, and high-talent units as well as retail and supporting programs in the lower levels of the towers. Residents in the towers will have a magnificent view of undulating wave park plane as well as convenient access to supporting cultural and community programs.
Occupying over 250 acres, the Campus will be a substantial addition to the built landscape of Dachan Bay. From the surrounding neighborhoods, a playful visual landscape sprawls as a unique choreography of green public space, punctuated by captivating icons of architecture. Taken as a whole, the campus serves as a vision for a smart, sustainable, connected, and community-oriented future.
