Abstract
So important to the Chinese nation and its economy is the China World Trade Centre in Beijing that a most senior member of the Chinese government personally visited and toured the development's major office tower on the occasion of its formal opening.
With its two hotels, two office blocks, exhibition centre with banqueting amenities, apartment complex and array of shopping and othe facilities, it is more than simply a self-sufficient mini-city. It represents the business, tourism and living standards of a developing China.
