For my travel project, I chose to travel to Beijing China. I chose the city of Beijing because over the past decade, it has turned into a modern metropolis, sparking new architectural designs and concepts, creating a dense population of contemporaty architecture. Another thing that sparked my interest about Beijing is the contrast of the old and new architecture and how the "old" city is gradually being torn down to create the "new"city. The concept of creating a city of essentially state of the art architecture really caught my attention and inspired me to learn more about it.
