It was the tallest structure in China prior to the topping out of Shanghai Tower. It is 595.7 m high, and it's now the third tallest tower and the fifth-tallest freestanding structure in the world. It has indoor public observatory at 433 m and outdoor observation deck at 450 m. In additions to the observation decks, the tower features various restaurants, a 4-D theater and other entertainment venues. At the top, the Bubble Tram consists of sixteen transparent passenger cars travelling on a track round the edge of the tower's roof, taking between 20 and 40 min to circumnavigate the rooftop.
