General Building Park
将军楼公园
Golmud's first multi-storey building and former headquarters of the Qinghai–Tibet Highway construction command, commemorating General Mu Shengzhong, the "Father of the Qinghai–Tibet Highway," and the road builders.
The General's Building was completed in 1956. It was Golmud's first multi-storey building and served as the headquarters of the Qinghai–Tibet Highway construction command, where General Mu Shengzhong, the "Father of the Qinghai–Tibet Highway," once worked. It is now the General's Building Park, preserving the main building, annex and gate. Exhibits on the road's history include photographs and artefacts, and the park features the Tianlu Memorial Tower and a statue of General Mu Shengzhong. It is the best place to understand Golmud's history, in which the road came before the city. The park is free, while exhibition halls keep hours that vary; check locally, as they are generally closed on Mondays. It is located in the Jinfeng Road area in the western part of the city and can be reached by taxi or on foot.
