It is in Pekin, the capital city of China. It is used as the headquarter of the China Media Groups (CMG). In spanish it is called “Sede de la Televisión Central de China”. Its shape is formed by the union of six prism-shaped blocks, and depending of the perspective it can look like a square or many other kinds of shapes ( always depending of the perspective).
It was started to be built the 1st June 2004 and was finished the 16th May 2012, but there was a problem because in 2009 a fire appeared because of some fireworks, so after that, it had to be renovated.
We think that the building is not well-balanced because it is huge and its structure is so complicated (because it has many sides and faces). It is also very curiuous for looking at it from different perspectives. This building is not classic or elegant because it is used for television, so in fact it is a very modern construction.
It has 44 floors, it has 473.000 squared meters and it is 234 meters high, and it cost 850.000.000 €.
