Beijing CBD

I will live in SOHO for three month, startin on May, 22nd. Be sure to get some pictures of Jian Wai SOHO from me.

why? only becuse so little glass wall?

i like it very much , in china lots of event is opaque, so use glass wall is better in beijing's bulidings

^^
SOHO is still breathtaking whenever I see it.

I love Beijing

Where is China WTC Tower?, must be really tall now.

Absolutely stunning. What Beijing lacks in height, it makes up for in design. I like that one particular street shot near the SOHO buildings. Its so futuristic and clean... reminds me of Tokyo!!!

wow,感觉建筑比上海还现代，更时尚

Do you guys have pictures of Fortune Plaza?

great pics!

不错，好片子,再多搜集几张发到国际不版上去。那里好久没有北京图片了。

Oh, Beijing, my hometown, my lover!
My wife and parents are all there.
I miss you!!!!!!

Highest quality architecture in China. Beijing's skyscrapers boom looks much slower than most China's main cities, but they are being very selective. They only build wonders.

Man! You've been to Destination ;) cool!

yep..i go there on every Saturday.. it is pretty cooooooool ;)

^^ I heard a lot about that place from one Taiwanese who spent last summer in Beijing. Accually I have just came back from Beijing but didn't go to Destination, maybe next time :)

By the way, great shots, new CBD is coming up nicely.

what is destination? a club?

nice photos

but you know, the traffic is really horrible there. I wonder how it can be improved...

There aren't any plans for that at the moment. Lines 1 and 2 of the Beijing subway go through the CBD.

I hope it'll be better after Line 10 (June 2008) and line 5 (Sep 2007) are completed. Any new pcitures?

What this thread needs is more skyscrapers listed. there are many questions that need to be answered on this thread:

Are there any more skyscrapers in the CBD?
Does Beijing have any more business/financial districts?

One more thing: A map of the CBD is coming soon.

Here is a map of the Beijing CBD.

Nice photos :)

Beijing's skyscrapers tend to be more... "normal". It lacks the more "unique" designs as seen in Shanghai. But then again, being the capital, Beijing has its own style too.

I prefere the "normal" design.

looks great, is there any condo near CBD tho? i hope it wont turn up to be like downtown LA- a ghost town.

Yes, Beijing's buildings are very aesthetically pleasing, more so than any other city in mainland, or even Taiwan for that matter. Just wondering, do foreign architects design them or chinese architects? And why don't every other Chinese city design buildings like such?

nice pics! this is the first time i see pics of the modern part of 北京! bout the architecture and design.. its very order and class compare to other chinese city.. :cool:

What I like about Beijing is that while most buildings are normal, every now and then you come across a really interesting design. The relative normality of the surroundings will make buildings like CCTV that much more striking. I think some cities have too many quirky designs, and without the backdrop of a normal cityscape they cannot be appreciated as unique because they no longer stand out.

I am wondering why there were not many people in those pics.

Some 500-metre high twin towers have recently been proposed for the Beijing CBD. It is to be built near Chaoyang Park.

500m in Beijing?? Pardon me, but I have my doubts about that...
