Zhongyuan Tower, Television and observation tower in Guancheng District, Zhengzhou, China.

The steel structure rises 388 meters into the sky with a hyperbolic parabola shape featuring sleek lines and modern architectural elements.

Construction started in December 2006 after national approval, and the tower opened in September 2011 following extensive engineering work requiring 22,000 tons of steel.

The exterior walls display relief decorations depicting Chinese folklore figures such as Nüwa, Hou Yi, and Pangu, connecting modern architecture with traditional narratives.

Thirteen elevators transport visitors to different levels, including a revolving restaurant at 255 meters and an observation deck offering views across Zhengzhou.

The third and fourth floors house 'Jinxiu Zhongyuan', recognized by Guinness World Records as the largest panoramic painting globally.
