impressive architecture

Yesterday i was walking around Guomao 國貿 district. Guomao is one of the central business districts in Beijing and is full of brand new mega-buildings. In comparison to HK, Beijing's buildings are architecturally more impressive both in variety and design. Of course it also has to do with the fact that land in Beijing is cheap compared to HK. Therefore, buildings can be spaced out much more and therefore, the viewer's focus is drawn to the building itself.

One particularly impressive skyscraper is the newly built CCTV HQ. Check the pics...i was especially interested in the window washers, what a difficult job they have!
