Culture Park （South Gate）, Recreational park in Chengdu, China
Culture Park spans multiple acres with gardens, walking paths, and ponds distributed across the landscaped grounds in central Chengdu. The planting scheme includes native plant species that create a naturally flowing composition throughout the space.
The park was created in the late 1900s as Chengdu expanded rapidly and needed to preserve green spaces within the growing city. This founding purpose shaped its role as an open area in the middle of urban development.
Local artists display traditional Chinese calligraphy and paintings along the pathways, giving visitors a chance to experience regional artistic practices firsthand. These works become part of the everyday scene as you walk through the grounds.
The South Gate entrance provides direct access to public transportation, and multiple entry points let you choose different routes through the grounds. Restrooms and parking are available to make your visit more comfortable.
During spring bloom season, the park displays dense patterns of red, purple, and white flowers from plant species native to the Sichuan region. This seasonal color shift completely transforms the garden beds for a brief period.
