CCTV Completed

    All of the glazing panels on CCTV have been installed, just in time for the Olympics. Not only that, but the weather is finally sunny!

      Thank you all for commenting!

      Weather forecast for Friday isn't that great at the moment. Let's hope the rain clears (or lands on Hebei, which is a definite possibility) by 8pm.

      Astonishing building. I love the little cranes in front, giving it some scale!

    11. China Chas (47 months ago | reply)

      hedgiecc: Actually, they're pretty big cranes - it's just the scale of the building itself that is huge. The low (podium) part is 10 storeys high on its own.

      have you any idea what you're going to do with all these photos ?
      a small book ?

    14. China Chas (46 months ago | reply)

      GraemeNicol: Actually, at this rate it could be a fairly large book!
