The dynamic and powerful movement of rowing is reflected in the design of the new Taiyuan Water Sports Center. The entire building has been elevated and provides a view of the river as it offers a grandstand with 300 seats in the landscape.
The main spaces for the competitions are located on Levels 2-5. The Terminal Tower North has a beautiful view over the new landscape park.
The 75m long, elegantly curved structure on level 2 can be accessed via two entrances and has a conference room for 200 conference guests, an interview and management area and an appropriate VIP area oriented towards the river.
The interview area can be opened into the main room via folding doors and offers space for the personal and media representatives.
