The improvement of the Revolution Square in Shuya is proposed as the first stage of a long-term project for the development and renovation of the historical part of the city.

There is a descent to the embankment, the coastal area is being improved, the boat station is being restored, recreation areas, cafes, shops, new bus stops and other necessary infrastructure elements appear. The inspiration for the creation of the concept was the Shuy plate - a bright and beautiful symbol of the handicraft and industrial history of Shuya.
