China has the largest number of skyscrapers in the world, surpassing that of the top eleven largest, the United States (870+), United Arab Emirates (310+), South Korea (270+), Japan (270+), Malaysia (260+), Australia (140+), Indonesia (130+), Canada (130+), Philippines (120+) and Thailand (120+) combined. As of 2023, China has more than 3,000 buildings above 150 m (490 ft), of which 106 are supertall (300 m (980 ft) and above).[1]
China is home to five of the world's ten tallest buildings.[2] 39 of the 76 completed buildings with a minimum height of 350 m (1,150 ft) worldwide are in China,[3] while 44 out of 51 such buildings under construction in the world are also located in the country.[4] China has also been a leader in construction technologies for skyscrapers, with 70 percent of the buildings over 300 m (980 ft) in the world being built by Chinese companies.[5]
The tallest building in China is currently the Shanghai Tower, located in the namesake city at a height of 632 m (2,073 ft); it is the third tallest building in the world.[6][7] The previous two tallest buildings in mainland China have also been in Shanghai. Hong Kong is the Chinese city with the most skyscrapers,[8] while Shenzhen has the most number of supertalls.[9]
In June 2020, China's National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) imposed a ban on the construction of super high-rise buildings taller than 500 m (1,600 ft), due to safety reasons and waste of resources.[10] In October 2021, the Chinese government announced restrictions on the construction of supertall buildings. The country's Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development (MOHURD) said the action is driven by concerns on "issues such as costs, energy consumption, safety, and environmental impact".[11][12][13]
Tallest buildings
As it is impractical to list all of its skyscrapers, the table below is an incomplete list of skyscrapers in China, ranking buildings that stand at least 300 metres (980 ft) tall, sorted by height. This list includes skyscrapers in the special administrative regions of Hong Kong and Macau.
This list does not include nonbuilding structures, such as the 604 m (1,982 ft) Canton Tower in Guangzhou, which despite being the second tallest structure in China, is actually an observation tower.
Of the 106 buildings in this list, 21 are in Shenzhen, 13 are in Guangzhou, 9 are in Shanghai, 7 are in Hong Kong and 2 are in Beijing.
