In anticipation of the 15th National Games, Nanshan District is set to unveil the Yuehai Subdistrict Cultural and Sports Center — an integrated hub combining a gymnasium, natatorium, and cultural center that will provide residents with one-stop access to cultural, fitness, and leisure activities.

Located at No. 1 Gaoxin South Ring Road, the center spans 40,000 square meters on a 5,760-square-meter site. The 69.5-meter-tall complex includes 12 above-ground floors and three basement levels, featuring fully integrated facilities.
Beyond its gymnasium, natatorium, and cultural hall, the center boasts a signature climbing wall, part of Nanshan's "One-Venue-One-Specialty" initiative. Additional amenities include a community health clinic and fitness assessment zones.

Reflecting its human-centered design, the center offers stroller parking at the main entrance and a newly opened café serving drinks and light meals. These thoughtful touches make the facility a vibrant social hub, blending athletic activities with community relaxation.
The center stands as a dynamic architectural showcase, merging serene humanities spaces — libraries and family reading nooks — with smart-reservation art zones on its lower levels.
The middle floors are alive with colorful sports facilities centered around the signature Sky Lounge, which connects community courts with panoramic terraces.
