When people think of iconic buildings around the world, the ones that usually come to mind are places like the Taj Mahal in India, St Basiltasks Cathedral in Moscow, the Opera House in Sydney or the Eiffel Tower in Paris. But there are four buildings and places where the architecture is definitely something special.
Bur al Arab*, Dubai
For many people the design of this building reminds them of the Sydney Opera House. Both arc designed A - the Opera House because of the boats that came into the harbor, the bur al Arab in Dubai to look like the sail of a dhow, the fishing vessel used throughout the Arab world.
Bur al Arab is a luxury hotel and took five years to build. Apart from the unique look, the hotel is also famous for two incredible restaurants. One. the Al Montana. is 200 meters up in the air and has some amazing views across the city. The other, the Al Amhara. is underwater В while eating some lovely food.
The Moscow Metro
This isntaskt one building, but a series of buildings and places that arc a surprise to almost all visitors to the city. Go into many of the stations on the metro system and you arc given a spectacle C. These include the incredible Komsomolskaya station with its arched yellow ceiling and chandeliers lighting up the space, the Ploshchadtask Revolyutsii full of colored marble and bronze statues. Novoslobodskaya with its thirty-two stained glass windows, and Elektrozavodskaya. which has mosaics of famous scientists like Franklin and Lomonosov. Many of the stations arc more like works of art than places you go to catch a train.
Ponte Veechio
Of course bridges can often be quite beautiful and this one is no exception. We know that Italy has some lovely architecture so it’s no surprise to find out that this bridge is in Florence, one of the most beautiful of all Italian cities. It is the oldest of the six bridges that span the river and the current bridge dates back to around 1345. The shops along the bridge were originally those of butchers, fishmongers and greengrocers. D by the goldsmithstask, jewelers’ and antique shops we find there today.
Shakespearetasks Globe
Opened in 1995. this building is a replica of the original theatre where many of Shakespearetasks plays were first performed. That building was destroyed by fire in 1611 during a performance of Henry VIII. The new building is close to the original site and based on the design of the first building. You can visit the building all year round. E between May and October as it is an outdoor theatre and so dosed during the winter. One very interesting fact is that there are other replicas in Germany. Italy, the USA and even in Japan.
