People's Park is located in the hinterland of the city, covering an area of ??22.2 hectares. It was first built in April 1988, and was initially completed and officially opened to the public on October 1, 1994. The park got its name because it was built with donations from the people and was used for people's entertainment.

Yan Boquan, a garden expert from Jiangsu Province, volunteered to provide the design blueprint, which was reviewed and approved by garden experts Tang Weizhong and Fan Shourong appointed by the Jiangxi Provincial Department of Construction.
