Lying in an inaccessible gravel pit are three well preserved examples of obsolete technology from the 1920s. They are acoustic mirrors designed to pick up the sound of approaching aircraft before they were visible. They were never taken into use because of the development of radar prior to World War 2. here are the 20 foot and 30 foot sound mirrors.

The Palace of the Winds is widely regarded as one of the finest examples of Rajput architecture in India. It is adorned with 953 windows. These were designed to enable the ladies of the royal court to watch street theatre unobserved, hidden behind the delicate latticework. Also known as the Hawa Mahal, the palace was built in 1799 for Maharaja Sawai Pratap Singh as part of the women's quarters of the expansive City Palace complex in the heart of Jaipur. The street-facing façade is essentially an enormous screened porch, only one room deep in most places. In 1876, Jaipur was preparing for the visit of the Prince of Wales. To welcome him with warmth and grandeur, Maharaja Sawai Ram Singh II ordered the entire city to be painted terracotta pink — a colour symbolizing hospitality and friendliness in Rajput culture — earning Jaipur its nickname of 'The Pink City'.

Das Tanzende Haus (tschechisch Tančící dům) ist der Spitzname eines 1996 verwirklichten Bürogebäudes in der tschechischen Hauptstadt Prag.
The Dancing House (Czech: Tančící dům), or Ginger and Fred, is the nickname given to the Nationale-Nederlanden building on the Rašínovo nábřeží (Rašín Embankment) in Prague, Czech Republic.
With its construction beginning in 1881, it was being built for prince Semyon Vorontsov based on the blueprints of a talented architect Etienne Bouchard. Bouchard had planned an original building in the style of French castles at the time of Louis XIII. The palace was even called a ‘Little Versailles.’ The construction was stopped, however, only a year in because of the prince’s death.
Construction resumed only in 1889, when the family of Russian emperor Alexander III purchased the building. Architect Maximilian Mesmaher maintained the size and general style of the building, but he substantially changed its look with new decorations; in effect, he transformed a knight’s castle into a wonderful palace.
In Soviet times, the castle was turned into a sanatorium called ‘Proletarian Health,’ used by those who were seriously ill with tuberculosis. In post-WWII years, it became officials’ summer residence: Stalin, Khrushchev, and Brezhnev all stayed here. Only in 1992, a museum dedicated to Alexander III was created on the first two floors. In its collection there are many unique items: chandeliers, a fireplace of brown marble, mahogany furniture, mirrors, and more.
Здание имеет весьма необычную архитектуру — внешне он напоминает и замок, и терем одновременно, при этом такое сочетание выглядит весьма гармоничным. Первый владелец участка в Верхней Массандре — князь М.С. Воронцов — планировал выстроить дворец, который стал бы воплощением стиля короля Людовика ХIII, и обязательно с двумя круглыми башнями. Проект был заказан французскому архитектору Этьену Бушару, однако, тому дворцу было не суждено существовать — всего через год после начала строительства Воронцов скончался, и работы были прекращены.
Спустя семь лет недостроенный особняк приобрел Александр III, нанятый им архитектор Месмахер не стал переделывать проект, он лишь внес корректировки, добавив балконы, скульптуры, террасы и разные декоративные элементы, отчего строгий замок обрел ореол романтики. Строительство было завершено в 1902 году и, хотя императорская семья больше любила Ливадийский дворец, Массандровское имение тоже не оставалось забытым.
После революции и до Великой Отечественной войны здесь располагался санаторий для больных туберкулезом, а в послевоенные годы тут проводило отпуска руководство страны. В 1992 году в Массандровском дворце открылся музей династии Романовых, и теперь его могут посетить все желающие.

Пример фортификационного сооружения, выполненного в неаполитанском стиле. Он расположен при входе в порт на месте старого акрополя и в плане представляет собой многоугольник, фланкированный круглыми бастионами. Costruito nell'840 per difendere la città dalle incursioni dei Saraceni, fu modificato nel 1541 da Carlo V. Presenta una pianta poligonale, e due torri: una più massiccia detta "Torre Aiutante", e un'altra detta "Torre Comandante". Attualmente il castello ospita una sezione del museo archeologico nazionale di Crotone e la Biblioteca Comunale "Armando Lucifero"
The Veneranda Fabbrica del Duomo di Milano ("Venerable Factory of the Duomo of Milan") is a 600-year-old organization that was established to supervise the construction of the Cathedral of Milan (the "Duomo"). The organization is still active and involved with the maintenance, preservation, and restoration of the cathedral. Its main headquarters are located in the eponymous palace in Piazza del Duomo. Despite the Duomo being a consecrated Roman Catholic church, the Venerable Factory is completely independent of the Holy See. Giuseppe Vandoni completed the work in 1865, crowning it with an impressive central clock, on which statues of day and night were installed nearby. The first, depicting a young woman who with one hand covers her face from the sun, the second is a halfa-sleep woman.
Джузеппе Вандони завершил работу в 1865 году, увенчав ее внушительными центральными часами, на которых статуи дня и ночи были установлены рядом. Первая, изображающая молодую женщину, которая одной рукой закрывает лицо от солнца, вторая - полусонная женщина.

The Palazzo Galloni is a vast and complex building. It was the residence of a wealthy bourgeois family of the 17th century. The main building, set aside from the embankment, is preceded by a low building, previously used as a warehouse for activities related to navigation in Naviglio. This is a simple tiled roof, supported by five large arches, of which one in the center leads to the courtyard. The other four large gates through which the carts of vegetables passed were walled up today and fragmented by small doors, balconies and windows.
Палаццо Галлони - это обширное и сложное здание. Это была резиденция богатой буржуазной семьи 17-го века. Основному корпусу, отведенному от , набережной предшествует невысокое здание, ранее использовавшееся в качестве склада для деятельности, связанной с навигацией в Naviglio. Это простая черепичная крыша, опирающаяся на пять больших арок, из которых одна в центре ведет во двор. Остальные четыре большие ворота, через которые проезжали повозки с овощами, сегодня замурованы стенами и фрагментированы маленькими дверями, балконами и окнами.
