The Deqing International Conference Center, the venue of the United Nations World Geospatial Information Congress, is a remarkable architectural marvel. Its design embodies the poetic concept of ‘Breaking the clouds at dawn and dancing like a phoenix in the nine heavens’. This vision has transformed the center into an important hub for communication within the global geospatial information community.
The structure is characterized by its two hemispheres, one in the east and the other in the west, which together form an oval shape. The three-dimensional metal roof that covers the building is a striking feature, resembling a phoenix taking flight. This design element adds a dynamic and symbolic touch to the center, making it a distinctive landmark in the field of geospatial information.
