The park serves as the exclusive service area for industries in the northern area of Changsha and the center area for the integration of cities and towns. Currently, it focuses on the development of modern service industries characterized by service outsourcing, e-commerce, cultural creativity, and headquarters economy, and the introduction of comprehensive tourism and commercial real estate industry characterized by regional commercial complexes and ecological holiday leisure industries. Eventually, the park will be transformed into a new icon in Changsha which integrates shopping, sightseeing, ecological living, cultural exchange, service outsourcing, e-commerce and headquarters economy.
