FUN FACTS

Most major cities have an observation deck. Built on top of skyscrapers, they provide visitors with 360˚ views of the world below. The tallest observation deck, Canton Tower, is 1,601 feet above ground and provides sweeping views of Guangzhou, China, the city where it was built. Observation decks give visitors an opportunity to view a city from a different perspective. And from most observations decks visitors aren’t limited to viewing one city. Often, on clear days, visitors can see neighboring cities and even states!
