Canton Tower/ Day and Night in the Small Wild Waist, China National Geographic Traditional Edition Special Photographer: Chen Jingwen

In essence, the Canton Tower, which is an electric wave tower, is widely known as the nickname "Little Wild Waist", and the Guangzhou Tower is 600 meters above sea level and 125 meters from the south bank of the Pearl River.

Since its completion before the 2010 Asian Games, "Little Wild Waist" has become a new landmark in Guangzhou, and has become a new landmark in Guangzhou, and has become a new landmark in Guangzhou with time.

The arrival of the super typhoon "Mangkhut" last weekend made many people sweat on the Canton Tower, which is "high above" and has a "slender and barbaric waist".

The overall mesh air leakage hole design of the tower body of the Canton Tower can effectively reduce the bulkiness and wind load of the tower body. The damping apparatus is two iron water tanks with a capacity of 500 tons each in the central core tube of the TV tower near the top floor, and tracks are installed under the tank so that the tank can slide. When the tower is shaking, the water tank can slide in the opposite direction through the sensor to reduce the shaking amplitude of the tower. The tower's special seismic design can withstand earthquakes with a strength of 7.8 and a typhoon of 12.

Selected from the eight years of the Canton Tower, please come and witness the colorful "little wild waist" with softness and rigidity
