National Centre for the Performing Arts | The Highest Hall of Chinese Performing Arts

🏯 Located on the west side of the Great Hall of the People, the National Centre for the Performing Arts is famous for its avant-garde and unique shape, which looks like an "alien" on the solemn and heavy Chang'an Avenue. ⛲️ The exterior of the theater is semi-elliptical, exuding a metallic luster with a great texture, like a pearl on the water against the artificial lake. 🌐 The internal steel frame structure is like intersecting geometric lines extending to the dome, presenting a magnificent momentum and a different tension. ⚓️ If you look closely, the silver steel frames are arranged in an orderly manner, enhancing the sense of depth of space while creating an infinitely extended visual effect. 🗿 There are many exquisite artworks in the hall, and the unique shape is eye-catching, adding a touch of sacredness to the quiet and spacious hall. 🎈 If you observe carefully inside the building, you can also see a lot of "Easter eggs". 🔼 Upwards, the borderless elevator design creates a sense of technology, as if traveling through time and space. 🔽 Downwards, the texture of the ground and the texture of the building in the distance create a quiet sense of space beauty. 🔱 The sunken square leading to the small theater is probably the most dreamy place in the theater. Looking down from a high place, the straight elevator is suspended in the arc structure, showing the beauty of symmetry. 🇨🇳 The National Centre for the Performing Arts was built at the beginning of the decade of China's economic take-off. It represents the end of an era and the beginning of another era, symbolizing the country's growing prosperity.
