Beijing Ubania: Mesmerizing Shapes

#chinatraveltips The modern architecture of Beijing not only shows the development and changes of the city, but also integrates art and technology to become a new landmark landscape. The following are several famous modern buildings in Beijing and their characteristics: Phoenix International Media Center: Design inspiration comes from the “Mobius Ring” in mathematics. Internal space is uniquely designed and is full of multiple public and shared spaces. Dialogue between the courtyard space and the environment not only reflects the sense of nature, but also shows the tension of modern technology. Liyuan Bookstore: Known as one of the most beautiful libraries in the world, the bookstore is perfectly integrated with the natural environment. There is no power or water source. It uses natural light to read, reflecting the harmonious symbiosis between man and nature. International Trade Complex: Located in the CBD area of Beijing, it consists of four world-famous buildings, including China's first urban complex, a new type of office building and the tallest building in Beijing. It is a window and historical witness to reform and opening up. Galaxy SOHO: Designed by Zaha Hadid, it looks like a traditional Chinese terraces. The buildings are connected to each other through corridors. The design is full of artistic sense and visual impact. Central Academy of Fine Arts Art Museum: Newly designed by Pritzker Prize winner Isozaki, the unique shape of the Art Museum shows the charm of modern architecture. Bird's Nest (National Stadium): The main venue of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. The shape is full of power and technology. It is particularly spectacular when the lights are on at night. Chinese Zun: The towering building has smooth lines and a modern sense. Standing under it, you can feel the smallness of mankind and the majesty of nature. Water Cube: The swimming pool of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games looks like a blue crystal box, full of futuristic feeling. Beijing Daxing International Airport: A modern international airport with unique design and advanced facilities, it has become the focus of the world's attention. Wangjing SOHO: The three high towers are scattered, with a simple and generous white appearance. It is one of the iconic buildings of Wangjing. These buildings are not only unique in design and construction, but also have reached a high degree of unity in function and art, demonstrating the modernization process and urban style of Beijing.
