Hangzhou Center is located on the renowned Wulin Square in Hangzhou, named after the Wulin Gate. The name Wulin Square has its origins from the Yuhangs in the Southern Song Dynasty, passing through various official gates, and finally being named after the Wulin Gate, which continues to be used to this day. Wulin Gate serves as the waterway gateway of the Grand Canal in Hangzhou, and several urban planning changes in Hangzhou have originated from this point. Wulin Square has also, at times, become the absolute center of modern urban life in Hangzhou.

杭州，因西湖而名，因运河而兴。杭州中心的景观设计在兼顾各功能单元的使用性上，在复杂的区位，文化，形式的诸多选择上如何作出克制有效的回应，用有限的笔墨去浸染杭城味道，表达现代神韵。云山运水的景观概念在三面云山一面城的杭城去捕捉和演绎关于西湖和运河的故事.

Hangzhou, named after the West Lake and thriving due to the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, has its landscape design at the core of Hangzhou Center. The design balances the usability of each functional unit, makes restrained and effective choices amid complex considerations of location, culture, and form. The challenge lies in using limited strokes to immerse the city in the flavor of Hangzhou, expressing a modern charm. The landscape concept of clouds, mountains, and flowing water captures and interprets the stories about the West Lake and the Grand Canal in Hangzhou, with three sides embraced by clouds and mountains and one side by the city.
