Time Magazine article by Richard Lacayo lists "The 10 Best (New and Upcoming) Architectural Marvels" and China gets three places, all in Beijing.

In order:

NEW

1. Bloch Building, Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art addition, Kansas City, Mo., by Steven Holl Architects.

2. Federal Building, San Francisco, by Morphosis

3. Olympic Sculpture Park, Seattle, by Marion Weiss and Michael Manfredi

4. IAC Headquarters, New York, by Frank Gehry Partners

5. The New Museum of Contemporary Art, New York, by Kazuyo Sejima and Ryue Nishizawa of Sanaa

UPCOMING

6. Olympic Stadium, Beijing

7. CCTV Headquarters, Beijing, by Rem Koolhaas

8. Linked Hybrid, Beijing, by Steven Holl

9. Heathrow Five, London, by Richard Rogers

10. Caja Madrid Tower, Madrid, by Norman Foster

It is going to take me a while to get used to the CCTV Headquarters in Beijing, but I am already a huge fan of Seattle's Olympic sculpture park.
