Welcome back, Richest fans! Beijing in China currently houses one of the most unusual structures around, the China Central Television Headquarters. Instead of being a typical skyscraper, it's designed in a very eye-catching way. It’s all part of China’s drive to modernise their buildings. As a result, the CCTV tower is one of the most expensive buildings in the world. Yet for many years, it was empty due to a big incident during the Chinese New Year. Today, we’re going to delve into the history, features, and costs of this unusual building. On top of that, we’ll see other incredible structures created by the same design team across the globe.
Now for the spoiler paragraph. If you like surprises, we suggest you stop reading and watch the video multiple times. Firstly, we have the history of the CCTV Tower. We’ll see what amazing features and facilities this structure holds. Such as a large, underground aquarium and a revolving restaurant. We’ll then see just what the massive construction costs are. Plus, we have the controversies and issues that occurred during its construction. We’ll see how one of the designers, Rem Koolhaas, reacted to words about the tower from China’s president, Xi Jinping. Then, we have the other artistic buildings created by the architects, OMA. Such as the Shenzhen Stock Exchange, Seattle Central Library, Western Australian Museum Boola Bardip, and The Factory in Manchester. Each one is stunning with its design. Finally, we’ll see the incredible Apple Park and its huge costs and valuation.
