At Liangma Port, the Bogong Lock features a rich display of light and shadow effects, combining naked-eye projection, laser drawing, and mechanical movements with a strong national style. At SOLONA Wharf, the "Magical Night: Music Box" light show combines music with visual art, creating a lively atmosphere that feels like a magical stage.

The Liangma River connects the major shopping districts of Sanlitun, Yansha, and SOLONA, and is lined by nearly 10,000 high-rated shops including five-star hotels, Michelin restaurants, cafes, tea houses, bookstores, and theaters.
