A famous part of the Beijing skyline formed by a series of different architectural sculptures, crowned by diamond-like shapes. In the centre and on the right, the painting reveals the atmosphere of ancient times; this is then combined with modern rhythmic patterns on the left. The landscape is like a kind of chessboard on which one of the main thoroughfares finds its way through the towering pieces. Dark brown, violet and silver grey contrast sharply with the blue of the CCTV Headquarters building, which reflects the constant changing colours of the sky.
