As the venue for the third World Internet Conference from Nov 16 to 18, the new center was designed by Wang Shu, the first Chinese citizen to win the Pritzker Prize, the world's top prize in architecture. The center has a total construction area of 81,000 square meters and is divided into three functional spaces. The building features 2.6 million blue roofing tiles, an everyday building material in the southern Yangtze River area, and 51,000 steel cables to form a web-like texture, a symbol of the Internet.
