Fangyuan Dasha in Shenyang

A money shaped building


The Fangyuan Dasha in Shenyang (方圆大厦) is a very striking sight. It's not particularly tall, but the unusual shape catches the eye. Known in English as the Coin Building because of it's shape of a circle containing a square. This design is reminiscent of the old Chinese money. The building belongs to the Shanghai Bank and is a well recognised landmark located near the cities north train station.
