Group Isopan, a division of an international diversified holding Manni Group, announces a new architectural competition, the first architectural prize Manni Design Award Xi'an Railway Station.
The contestants are faced with the task of developing projects for the transformation of a modern city, taking into account sustainable development.

The initiative aims to support talented architects.
The bidders will have to create a new railway terminal for the Chinese city of Xi'an. The history of this place goes back over 3000 years. It was from here that the Great Silk Road began.
