CCTV Tower

The CCTV Tower is one of the interesting modern architectural structures located in the central business district of Beijing. Though it covers more than 5 million square feet and over 40 floors, it isn’t a traditional tower at all but a one-of-a-kind grid with 6 columns and rows. When joined together, they create an open center. Aside from the façade, the tower has also become popular for its carved paintings on the eastern hall, revolving restaurant, and Taipingyang Underwater World Exhibition.
