Leeza SOHO (Chinese: 丽泽SOHO; pinyin: Lìzé SOHO), also known as Li Ze Tower, is a 207 m (679 ft) tall commercial skyscraper located in the Lize Financial Business District in Beijing, China. SOHO China acquired land use rights in 2013 for ¥1.922 billion RMB (US$288 million).[6] The construction of the building began in 2015[4] and it was opened on 19 November 2019,[2] making it the third of three buildings designed by Zaha Hadid Architects and developed by SOHO China, along with Galaxy SOHO and Wangjing SOHO.

The Leeza SOHO features a 194 m (636 ft) tall twisting atrium at its centre, which is the tallest in the world, a title previously held by the Burj Al Arab hotel in Dubai. The atrium twists 45° over the height of the building to allow natural light to all floors. Structural rings at each level, four sky bridges, and a double-insulated glass façade unite the two halves of the tower together.[7]
Subway connection
Leeza SOHO is located at the intersection of Line 14 and Line 16 of the Beijing Subway network.[4] Lize Shangwuqu station is served by Line 14, and will be served by Line 16 and Daxing Airport Express in the future.
