In 2025, a 15-kilometer yacht route will open along the Ba River, to allow tourists to travel directly from INDIGO in Chaoyang District to the Beijing Municipal Administrative Center by water. The riverbanks will be planted with colorful foliage trees to create a picturesque, oil-painting-like landscape during autumn.

The construction of the INDIGO Harbor Dock of the Ba River was completed recently. The riverside space where the dock is located has been open to the public since October 2024. Along the river section where the dock is located, a treatment project covering 2.3 kilometers has been completed, which stretches from Jiuxianqiao Road to Langyuan and covers a total area of 21.6 hectares (including 14.6 hectares of landscaped greenery and 7 hectares of water area).

The INDIGO Harbor Dock area is the last part of the Ba River's Jiuxianqiao Road-Langyuan waterfront treatment project. Spanning approximately 300 meters in length and 65 meters in width, the dock covers a total area of 18,000 square meters, with a 4,000-square-meter water surface designated to harbor boats in the future. It serves as a pivotal hub for the Ba River's comprehensive navigation plan.

Come to the Ba River, where fun never ends whether it is day or night. Sip a cup of coffee, bask in the sun, or peddle a boat to explore the poetic nature of life.
