It was constructed in the late-2010s to house the research and development offices of technology company Huawei. There are twelve groups of buildings, based on European cities or regions, including Heidelberg Castle, and Cité Internationale Universitaire de Paris, plus one-to-one copies of the buildings of Bruges, Český Krumlov, Verona, Bologna, Budapest, Tallinn, and Granada. The zones are connected together using a tram system modelled on trains supplied by Stadler Rail for the Jungfrau Railway in Switzerland. == The Battle of Songshan Lake == After cooperation with Google became restricted, in October 2019, Huawei assembled over 2,000 engineers from around the world at this campus to jointly develop HMS as an alternative to Google Mobile Services. Due to the campus being located in Songshan Lake, this effort was called the Battle of Songshan Lake (Chinese: 松湖会战; pinyin: Sōnghú Huìzhàn). Fang Xingdong commented that this "large-scale investment did not achieve the expected commercial returns and could even be considered a failure," but it laid the foundation for the rise of HarmonyOS. == References == == Further reading ==
