The promenade connects the urban center
and the racing event place for 2008 Olympic Sailing Regatta.
The design intensifies the connection 
with the 3 meters wide thin water layer 
that flush with the pavement through the whole promenade 
with only broken point at the space of the center plaza 
which is the joints of the building spaces. 
In the thin water layer are kinds of fantastic water jets. 
Also the information about the gold medals 
and the names of all the Olympic Sailing events of the history 
will be engraved on the surface 
that could be very dramatic at night with lighting 
and will attract people to read and understand the sailing race history.
