All visitors of Burano remain intrigued by the many colours and the colorful houses that are reflected into the green waters of channels, by the leaning bell tower, by the tranquility and the calmness with which the elderly ladies embroider original Burano lace by their tombolo (or lace pillow), while they are laughing and chatting in squares among them. It seems to be in paradise.

The Shwedagon Pagoda is one of the most famous pagodas in the world and it is certainly the main attraction of Yangon, Myanmar’s capital city.
The formal name of the Shwedagon Pagoda is Shwedagon Zedi Daw, which translates as The Great Golden Mountain Stupa. Nothing could be nearer to the truth, the stupa is plated with nearly 22,000 solid gold bars, it’s set with over 5500 diamonds, the main spire boasts 2300 rubies, sapphires, and other gems, and 4000 golden bells… not forgetting the largest of which is a whopping 72 carat diamond.

Milan Cathedral, called Duomo di Milano in Italian, is a vast Gothic-style cathedral, located in the heart of Milan. It is 515 ft (157 metres) long and 302 ft (92 m) wide. It can house up to 40.000 people. Il Duomo di Milano is one of the largest Catholic churches in the world. The construction of Milan Cathedral began in 1386, which coincided with Gian Galeazzo Visconti coming into power. The purpose of this impressive construction was to modernize the area and to celebrate the expansion of the Visconti territory. The Cathedral took five centuries to complete. During this time, various architects, sculptors and artists contributed to the famous construction program known as the “Fabbrica del Duomo”. The result was an impressive and unique piece of architecture, which merged the international Gothic style with the Lombard Romanesque style.
С учетом всех декораторских работ строительство осуществлялось 579 лет. Мало какие сооружения могут похвастаться столь серьезным и длительным подходом к созданию уникального произведения искусства. В массивной церкви может вместиться около 40 000 человек. Если взглянуть на здание с высоты птичьего полета, то станет ясно, что оно напоминает католический крест, у которого вертикаль составляет 158 м, а горизонтальный неф – 92 м. Наивысшая точка собора – шпиль, украшенный статуей Девы Марии, высота самого высокого шпиля – 106 м.

Khan el-Khalili (Arabic: خان الخليلي) is a famous bazaar and souq (or souk) in the historic center of Cairo, Egypt. The bazaar district is one of Cairo's main attractions for tourists and Egyptians alike. It is also home to many Egyptian artisans and workshops involved in the production of traditional crafts and souvenirs.
Cairo itself was originally founded in 969 CE as a royal city and capital for the Fatimid Caliphate. Gawhar al-Siqilli, the general who had just conquered Egypt for the Fatimids, ordered the construction of a great palace complex to house the caliphs, their household, and the state's institutions. The site of Khan el-Khalili today was originally the southern end of the eastern Great Fatimid Palace, as well as the location of the burial site of the Fatimid caliphs.

Городская ратуша Коломбо расположена в районе Cinnamon Gardens и является его главным украшением. Этот прекрасный архитектурный памятник способен восхитить каждого путешественника.
Здание было возведено по плану С. Дж. Эдвардса, и за образец архитектор взял вашингтонский Капитолий. Строительство стартовало в 1924 году, а торжественное открытие ратуши состоялось в 1927-м. Неоднократно она реставрировалась, поэтому дошла до нас в очень хорошем виде.
Двухэтажное белоснежное здание являет собой яркий образец неоклассического стиля. Окна первого и второго уровней не отличаются обилием декоративных элементов. По всему периметру ратуша украшена строгими круглыми колоннами с лаконичными капителями. Особенно восхищает центральный выступающий портик, плоская крыша которого поддерживается рядом колонн, дарящих конструкции легкость. Основную часть здания венчает большой купол, покоящийся на широком барабане с колоннами. На нем разместилась изящная конструкция, которая напоминает тот же самый купол, но гораздо меньшего размера.
The Janike-khanym mausoleum is an almost completely preserved mausoleum of the 15th century. - a fine example of "Seljuk" architecture. It is a monumental octagonal structure under a tiled roof, decorated with carved columns along the edges of the edges. It is adjoined by a carved portal with a massive arch, and an Arabic calligraphic inscription is carved at the entrance: these are hadith texts, in which, among other things, there are the words "This world is a dwelling of vanity, but the future life is eternal." In the depths of the mausoleum, on a stepped elevation, one can see a tombstone decorated with an elegant, like ornament, Arabic inscription: "This is the tomb of the great empress Janike-khanym, daughter of Tokhtamysh-khan, who died in the month of Ramadan in 841 (1437)."

Мавзолей Джанике-ханым — почти полностью сохранившийся мавзолей XV в. — прекрасный образец «сельджукской» архитектуры. Это монументальное восьмигранное сооружение под черепичной крышей, украшенное по ребрам граней резными колонками. К нему примыкает покрытый резьбой портал с массивной аркой, а у входа высечена арабская каллиграфическая надпись: это тексты хадисов, в которых, среди прочего, встречаются слова «Этот мир есть жилище суеты, будущая же жизнь вечна». В глубине мавзолея на ступенчатом возвышении видно надгробие, украшенное изящной, словно орнамент, арабской надписью: «Это гробница великой государыни Джанике-ханым, дочери Тохтамыш-хана, скончавшейся месяца рамазана 841 года (1437)».

MOL Campus, a neomodern skyscraper, is the headquarters of the Hungarian oil and gas company, MOL Group, in Budapest, Hungary. The building's construction was overseen by the architectural firm Foster + Partners, who were commissioned to develop the detailed designs for the project. The tower is currently the tallest building in Budapest and Hungary.
The castle stands where probably the Hipponion Acropolis was located, which partly extended to the nearby hill. Although the first phase of construction of the structure was vaguely attributed to the Norman age, in fact it dates back to the Svevo period. The castle today features cylindrical towers, a ram tower and a doorway to an Angevin arch. It is currently home to the State Archaeological Museum. Замок находится на вершине холма, где когда-то располагался акрополь античный Хиппонион. Замок выполнен в форме корабля и возвышается над городом Вибо Валентина и долины Мезима. Замок построен в период между 1000 и 1074 годами по прикажу Роджера Норманнского, изначально замок задумывался как обычная крепость, которая должна была состоять из одиночной треугольной башни по центру, которая окружена круглыми башнями.
