Beijing, China
4 November 2014
Located in the heart of Beijing Olympic Park, adjacent to the Water Cube and the Bird’s Nest, the China National Convention Center (CNCC) once played a major role when it served as the media center and international broadcast center during the 2008 Beijing Olymipcs.
Today, the CNCC will once again play a major part in history as China hosts this year 22nd Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Summit. Several major meetings of the APEC 2014 Economic Leaders’ week starting on 5-11 November will be conducted here, as well as house the APEC media center.
The CNCC has a total floor place of 530,000sqm, including 270,000sqm allotted for convention and exhibitions. The building façade exemplifies the convergence of tradition and modernity, as it resembles the traditional Chinese quoins with a touch of modern architectural design that embodies the rich history and culture of the Chinese civilization.
