On this tower, the best view isn’t just at the top. The Chenhu Migratory Bird Observation Tower, designed by Xiang Architects, guides visitors through 24 viewing platforms situated between two separate flights of stairs.

As a result, the nearly 20-meter-tall structure becomes not only an observation point but also a path that gradually reveals the Chenhu [...]

architecture

Architecture is the art of designing and building spatial forms and shaping the space between them. According to Vitruvius, author of the treatise "On Architecture of Books Ten," the basic principles of designing and constructing buildings are durability, utility and beauty.

It has shaped and changed over the centuries in accordance with the needs, current trends and available technological solutions. To this day, we can marvel at the elements of architecture of ancient cultures, admire the dominant styles in different centuries and see the diversity in architecture in different parts of the world.
