The 92-hectare World Sculpture Park in Changchun, capital of Jilin province, lies in the urban south on the People Street.
Construction on the park started in 2002 and finished two years later. It contains both traditional landscape gardens and modern sculptures.
The theme of the park is friendship, spring and peace, reflected in a 23.5-m high monument designed by famed sculptors Ye Yushan, Pan He, Cheng Yunxian, Wang Keqing and Cao Chunsheng. It now has more than 320 sculptures from over 270 artists from more than 110 countries and regions.
