The Xi'an CapitaMall Yujincheng is located only 7 kilometers away from the Daming Palace in the Baqiao District, on Chanhe East Road, at Northwest corner of the intersection between Changle East Road and the East Third Ring Road, diagonally across from the Banpo Museum. 

Docked on the Chanhe River, the CapitaMall Yujincheng is a three-tiered deck vessel with a sky garden on its lower deck. Its hull is made of multi-color aluminum panels (white, beige and dark brown) combined with glass curtain wall.

The lighting design emphasizes the architectural characteristics of this vessel. The focus is on the main elevation with the three-tier decks, the hull, the bow, the stern and the gangways visible from the Chanhe Road. The overall color temperature used on the hull is a 3000K champagne white, creating a soft, comfortable, festive and welcoming experience for the passengers of the cruise.

The three-tier decks are each revealed through concealed 3000K LED linear lights that wash the beige and dark brown hull while the white midship is emphasized by controlled and focused 3000K LED flood lightings from the landscape to minimize light spill.
