The 14th China (Hefei) International Garden Expo opened on Tuesday in Hefei, Anhui province, and will run for three months with free entry.

Themed "Ecological priority, people's expo", the event is being staged in Hefei's Luogang Central Park. Covering an area of 12.7 square kilometers in the city's core area, the park, which is now completed, is believed to be the world's largest urban park.

The site was originally occupied by Hefei Luogang Airport, which had served the city for 38 years until 2012, when the city opened a new and larger airport in the suburbs.

After the expo, all the gardens and distinctive buildings will be retained, according to the organizers — the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development and the Anhui People's Government.

The suspended monorail line operates for 12 hours every day, with a monorail departing every 10 minutes.



The maximum operating speed of the monorail train is 60 km per hour. The entire operation process, including starting, entering stations, opening and closing doors, is fully automated and requires no human intervention.



The monorail train, also known as "the Optics Valley Photon," appears to hang upside down because the track is positioned above.



Passengers can enjoy the city from an entirely different perspective through the glass floor beneath their feet.
