Neoclassical design approach

The architectural façade of Global Harbor is a varied interpretation of the neoclassical design approach. Internally, Italian Renaissance and natural romantic styles have been used, featuring a large interior space divided into 3 distinguished atrium spaces. At the southern end, Sun Plaza adopts the classical style of ancient Greece and Rome to create a magnificent internal space. In the middle, Central Plaza offers the classic, romantic and exotic style of Italian Venice, with exquisite decorations. The northern Garden Court uses patterns of natural green plants to provide a relaxing environment for visitors.
