An art museum has been built at the edge of a 165-meter-high cliff in Anlong county, Southwest China's Guizhou Province. It is the first art museum, named Limestone Galleay, built at the top of a cliff in China.
Constructed on top of the cliff, the museum covers an interior area of 800 square meters and includes two exhibition floors, a meeting room and an outdoor sightseeing platform on the roof.
The museum features an arcade-like frontage and its exterior is a glass curtain wall that allows visitors to enjoy the scenery of the hill and valleys from the top.
