Guanyun Town Center is located at the south foot of the Mogan Mountain, the scenic mountain & tourist destination. The design idea is to create a slow and healthy living environment for the nearby community and tourists. The town center provides service including senior college, featured resort, community amenities and healthy living facilities.

The town planning is based on the skeleton of historical town’s layout, with the senior college sitting in the middle of the main street. The main street north end connects the residential community, and the south end is the tourists’ gateway. There are 4 plazas and 11 courtyards scattered in the town center, act as gathering places or landscape viewpoints.
Architecture contains a fusion of traditional Chinese structural details and modern style, with clean white walls and black tiles which present a sense of belonging and intimacy.
