China hosted the 2/kloc-0 Universiade in 20001year, and it is the second Asian country to host the Universiade after Japan.
Universiade is the threshold for the new China competitive sports to go global in an all-round way, and it can also be said that it is the cradle of the new China competitive sports. 1975, the International University Sports Federation 14 Congress embraced New China for the first time. As the second largest comprehensive world event after the Olympic Games at that time, the Universiade opened its welcome arms to New China for the first time.

Since then, the Universiade has played an important role in competitive sports in China. China participated in all the Universiade since then, making full use of the World Comprehensive Competition, the only stage tempering team in China. China women's volleyball team won the championship in 198 1 Universiade, which achieved the "zero breakthrough" of China's "three big goals" in the world competition. Through the Universiade, China has also trained a number of world stars, including "diving king" Chen. Shenzhen Universiade Center is located in the northeast of Shenzhen, west of Longgang Center, about15km away from the city center. It is the main venue of the 26th Summer Universiade held in Shenzhen on 20 1 1, and it is also the future central area for Shenzhen to implement the strategy of building a city through culture, develop sports industry and promote national fitness.
The whole project covers an area of about 87.4 hectares, with a construction area of more than 300,000 square meters and a total investment of about 3.5 billion yuan. When completed, it will become a landmark building in Shenzhen. The project includes the main stadium, gymnasium, swimming pool, national fitness square, sports comprehensive service area, news command center and other sports facilities.

There is also a 3000-seat swimming pool.
The design of Universiade Center also embodies the most avant-garde architectural concept and people-oriented purpose. "One Pavilion and Two Pavilions" are distributed in a triangle with water in the middle. The three gymnasiums are like three crystal boulders, which cooperate with the surrounding mountains and green spaces to form a unique "landscape stone" structure. The image of megalith breaks the convention and is used for large public sports buildings for the first time, which can better reflect the innovative spirit of Shenzhen. At the same time, natural lighting and ventilation are fully considered to reduce resource consumption, which conforms to the design concept of environmental protection and energy saving, improves utilization efficiency and is economical.
