Xinghai Square, with a total of 45,000 square meters, is located in the commercial center of Xinghai Bay. It is the largest square for public use in Dalian since the founding of the city.
In the center stands a 19.97 meter-high, 1.997-meter-in-diameter white marble ornamental column. It was erected in 1997 to commemorate the return of Hong Kong. The ground of the square is laid with red marble decorated with five-pointed stars. Some 500 meters northward is the Convention and Exhibition Center; and some 500 meters southwards is the vast sea. As night falls, lamps on the stone pillars lighten the main street. The lamps, every 20 meters each, are in the shape of the navigation light.
