Nanjing Niu Shou Mountain

The Nanjing Niushou Mountain Cultural Tourism Zone is a cultural centre in Nanjing, the capital of East China's Jiangsu province. The concept is based on a significant religious background: the Niu Tou community, a current within Chinese Zen Buddhism, originated here. Visitors from China and all over the world come to Nanjing to admire the landscape as well as the Buddhist cultural heritage, which is presented in numerous exceptional buildings. In 2015, the Tourist Center was built, which houses, among other things, an information desk, a restaurant and a ticket office. The material properties of RHEINZINK - recyclability, long service life and low primary energy demand - were convincing arguments for the planners to clad the roof of the impressive building with RHEINZINK-prePATINA. Around 16,000 m² of the material was laid on the imposing roofscape using the double standing seam system.
