China building world's tallest skyscraper in 12 weeks

China are not slowing down when it comes to building skyscrapers. Almost a third of the world’s tallest buildings are already in China with more to follow.


Construction firm The Broad Group are planning to top the Burj Khalifa in Dubai by 32 feet. The building will begin construction in January and the skyscraper will be 2,749 feet tall. What is incredible is that they plan to do it in record time, in just 12 weeks!

The building will be in Changsha, in South Central China and it is to be called ‘Sky City’. The skyscraper will hold a school, a hospital, 17 helipads and accommodation for 30,000 people.
