The Tianjin Binhai Library is a cultural center in Tianjin, China,  that features floor-to-ceiling terraced “bookshelves” with intricate design. It Was built towards the end of last year, is five stories tall and has the capacity for more than 1 million books.  

Look at this stunning Architecture!! This library has been doing its rounds and sending the book  lovers crazy in hopes to visiting it lately. Come to check out with us！

China house :The owner of the museum, Mr. Zhang Lianzhi,spent 30 million Yuan on buying it at an auction in 2000 and started todecorate it with his own antique collections in 2002. There is no blueprint fordesigning and Mr. Zhang decorates it by his inspirations and artistic talents.

During the construction of Chinahouse, it has used more than 20 tons of naturalcrystal, more than 300 stone lions, more than 300 porcelain cat pillows andmore than 13 thousand intact porcelain vases, bowls and plates. Presently, wehave already stuck more than 700 million porcelain pieces outside and insidethe building, and all of them are antiques.
