The only inteligent building in the city, this tall tower was designed by Japanese architects Nihon Sekkei Inc. It´s a modern building with few interest but it has a nice restaurant, the Thiripyitsaya Sky Bistro at 20th floor, with great views of Dowtown, Chinatown and the Shwedagon Paya. I was invited to lunch here by my friends of the 7 days tour operator, good food and better views.
