Global 188

Global 188 is a twin tower complex with 54 floors located in Suzhou, China, featuring postmodern architectural design. The two towers contain office spaces, retail areas, and commercial zones that are internally connected.

The project was designed by the East China Architectural Design & Research Institute and completed in 2010 during a period of rapid urban growth in Suzhou. Its completion coincided with the city's expansion as a regional economic hub.

The twin towers represent Suzhou's shift from a classical garden city to a modern business hub, symbolizing how contemporary development shapes the urban landscape. They reflect the city's growing role as an economic center in the region.

The towers are located in a well-connected area with access to public transportation and easy to reach. Visitors should ask about access policies for retail or office areas before visiting, as opening times may vary.

The two towers are connected by a pedestrian bridge that offers views of the city and creates an unusual vantage point. This connection is a rare feature in Chinese architecture and makes the complex experience distinctive.
