The Longxi International Hotel (formerly Hanging Village of Huaxi ) is the name of a skyscraper in the Chinese city of Jiangyin designed by the architectural firm A + E Design . After construction began in 2007, the building reached its final height of 328 meters in September 2010 and was fully completed exactly one year later, in September 2011. It is the tallest structure in the city and even towers over the Eiffel Tower by four meters. The skyscraper has 72 floors, in the lower area of which a hotel is housed. Living spaces have been created higher up. Unlike many other skyscrapers (especially this size), the building is a bit outside of the city and not in the immediate center.
