Xiamen Center Skyscrapers, located in Xiamen, Fujian, China, is a key local construction project. With a total construction area of about 610,000 square meters and a total investment of about 7.5 billion, it is the largest commercial complex project to be delivered in Xiamen. I took this photo inside one of the buildings of this project. Compared with the huge steel structure, our human beings are so small. The sun shone through the huge glass curtain wall, and the whole façade was like a great door to the future.
