CITIC TOWER , BEIJING – 527M
88
Completed in 2018 , CITIC Tower ( also known as China Zun ) dominates the Beijing skyline with its distinctive swooping shape coated in glass that shimmers across the Chaoyang District . Standing 527 metres tall , the CITIC tower is a rare creation , in that it hasn ’ t accentuated its total height with an antennae or spire . In fact , only the final 14 metres of the building are unoccupied by offices . The tower has 109 floors above ground and eight below , which are serviced by 100 elevators . The next-tallest building in Beijing , the China World Trade Centre Tower III , is a full 190 metres shorter than CITIC .
