An investment of 5 million yuan (approximately $717,731) transformed the space into a professional sports facility.<\/p>\n<p>Such transformations are becoming increasingly common in Wangjiang. Space beneath an overpass has been converted into a sports park, while the rooftop of a residential community&#8217;s underground garage\u00a0now features\u00a0badminton courts and table tennis tables.<\/p>\n<p>In recent years, the neighborhood has consistently worked to activate\u00a0urban sports spaces, establishing 10-minute fitness accessibility and steadily improving residents&#8217; fitness experience.<\/p>\n<p><strong><b>Qingdao, Shandong: An Idle Coal Depot Reborn as a Sports, Culture and Commerce Hub<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Stepping into the Zhonglian LOHAS Park\u00a0in Shibei district of Qingdao, one is greeted by a lively scene.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The facilities are new and the atmosphere is great. Breaking a sweat here really refreshes both body and mind,&#8221; said Zhou Miao, 40, who works nearby and plays badminton with colleagues in the park almost every day.<\/p>\n<p>This 11,000-square-meter park was once a coal storage yard for Qingdao Energy.\u00a0As the city\u00a0advanced its\u00a0&#8220;coal-to-gas&#8221; initiative heating initiative, the yard fell\u00a0idle.<\/p>\n<p>Urban renewal efforts changed its fate. In 2023, Qingdao Energy partnered with Zhonglian Jianye Group, entrusting them to renovate and operate the site.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We surveyed the area\u00a0and spotted a huge gap between the large demand of residents for cultural and sports activities and the lack of sports facilities,&#8221; said Zhou Hua, chairman of Zhonglian Jianye Group. The renovation transformed the coal depot into a two-story, open-style complex integrating culture, sports, and commerce.<\/p>\n<p>In November 2023, the Zhonglian LOHAS Park was put into operation. It houses nearly 30 multifunctional sports fields and gathers over 20 commercial brands.<\/p>\n<p>With booking rates exceeding 80 percent for its badminton, basketball, table tennis, and billiards facilities, the complex now receives over 1 million visits per year. What was once an industrial rust belt has been successfully turned into a trendy sports space that attracts more than 2,500 visitors per day.<\/p>\n<p><strong><b>Yinchuan, Ningxia: An Abandoned Mining Pit Transformed into a Sports Park<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Viewed from above, the Helan Mountains Sports and Leisure Park in Yinchuan, Ningxia Hui autonomous region, looks like a gem set within landscaped grounds, where lakes, waterfalls and pavilions blend seamlessly with running tracks, basketball courts and other fitness facilities.<\/p>\n<p>Spanning 80 hectares, the park was, a decade ago, a subsidence pit left by sand and gravel mining. &#8220;I used to come here as a child. Back then there wasn&#8217;t a single tree\u00a0&#8212; just howling winds,&#8221; recalled Jia Jincai, publicity manager of Chateau Zhihui Yuanshi Co., Ltd.<\/p>\n<p>In 2016, the company undertook the pit&#8217;s ecological restoration.\u00a0&#8220;Planting trees in a gravel pit was extremely difficult. Water was scarce, and newly planted trees often died,&#8221; Jia said. &#8220;But we persevered.&#8221;\u00a0They developed a science-based approach: first planting drought-resistant shelterbelts to stabilize the soil and conserve moisture; then, as conditions improved, introducing diverse landscape species. Today, over 100 tree types thrive.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;With the ecology restored, we made use of the pit&#8217;s original terrain to build a modern sports park integrating ecological protection, fitness and leisure,&#8221; Jia explained.<\/p>\n<p>In 2023, the park also completed a smart fitness trail, equipped with one event command and control center and nine full-scenario intelligent data collection points.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Last year, we hosted a half marathon\u00a0where more than 60 percent of runners\u00a0were from outside the region,&#8221; Jia said. Many participants also visited the vineyard, creating a virtuous cycle in which sporting events boost tourism and tourism supports local industries. &#8220;The park restored the ecology, provided public exercise space, and generated economic benefits &#8212;\u00a0a true triple win.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p class=\"text-justify mb-2\" >By Dou Hanyang, Wang Zhe, Jiao Siyu, People&#8217;s Daily Across China, a form of &#8220;spatial alchemy&#8221; is transforming overlooked and underutilized urban areas into vibrant sports facilities.
