A triangulated glass and steel restaurant sits beside a river in a remote forested gorge in southern China. Designed by Liu Chongxiao, the Tianmen Mountain Restaurant is located at the foot of a ravine leading down from the top of a mountain popular with sightseers. The restaurant is constructed from triangular panels of alternating timber and glass strips that allows diners a view of the surrounding landscape. The building is raised off the ground on steel feet to prevent flooding and gives access to the river via an external staircase. Tianmen Mountain forms a national forest park near the town of Guilin and also contains a historic temple.
