    They basically added a couple of floors to hide the dome. Looks like the spires got shorter though.

      I do really wonder if the dome is still hiding inside there. It looks like it might be big enough and that sounds like it would be the easy solution.

        AFAIK these domes are beautiful on the inside, I would assume they kept it, but we’re talking cultural revolution levels of narrow mindedness here, so who knows?

        Edit: from the satellite imagery I’d say its gone.
