Beijing has some unusual modern architecture. Here are some samples:
 |
| From one angle, the CCTV Building (China Central TV) looks like it has an interesting cantilever design. |
 |
| From another angle, it gets the name "big pants". The reimagination of the skyscraper as a loop is partially based on feng shui principles. |
 |
| This building, near the 2008 Olympic campus, is locally known as the "bottle opener". |
 |
| Towers built for the 2008 Summer Olympics. |
 |
| The 2008 Olympic "Birds Nest" Stadium. |
 |
| The tallest building in Beijing, popularly known as "China Zun" (China Wine Vessel). I think it resembles an Erlenmeyer flask. |
