50 Times Architects Created Something Truly Extraordinary
When you see a beautiful painting, what's the first thought that comes to your head? "Wow, that must have taken ages." Or is it "I can't believe this was done by a person"? At least that's what I often think when I see an architectural wonder. Truly, how can humans have built something as impressive and intricate as the Sagrada Família in Barcelona or the Duomo di Milano?
But they have, as well as other beautiful buildings, which often get featured in one dedicated Reddit community. That subreddit celebrates the best of architecture from all around the world. So, here we have for you, Pandas, the newest collection of pics from and for all architecture lovers!

If you want to be married here, the groom must carry the bride up all 99 stairs. My wife thought this was such a romantic notion. But less romantic would be me dropping her or having a cardiac event half-way up. Either way, it is fantastic to visit and just as beautiful in person. Also, the rowers of the boats that take you there use a unique method that has been passed down through generations.

Antonio Gaudi, who designed the Segrada Familia, also designed a few apartment buildings in Barcelona. They are beautiful. He also designed Park Guell and his house is on the grounds.

Unfortunately, it's been modernised inside as a museum, complete with lifts. I believe Himeji Castle is more attractive & remains more like its original self inside. My photo from 2007 Himeji-Cas...83df29.jpg

The Two Leaning Towers Of Bologna, Italy
Jrog 1 year ago (edited)
They are at high risk of collapse and are undergoing consolidation and renovation works. The Garisenda, the shorter one, will require about 10 years of works to reinforce the tower and straighten it enough to make it safe. The Asinelli one, the taller, will require major works to recover damage that added up since the 1500s, including stray cannon shots, multiple fires, dozens of lighting strikes and badly executed past renovations

I’m startled that nothing from Frank Lloyd Wright was included. Or even Bella Hadid.
