TIPS & FUN FACTS
In the mountain alone, there is over 1,800 tons of steel -- roughly 6 times the amount that a traditional office building of the same size would be.

To give it a more organic look and feel, landscapers planted 4 species of Giant Bamboos, 10 species of trees and 114 species of shrubs over approximately 5 acres of rockwork on the mountain.
