The Ten Most Lovely Beautiful Buildings in the World
 
The Ten Most Lovely Beautiful Buildings in the World
Bongsong · 10 months ago
As much as I love "top ten" lists, and enjoy creating them; I realize that virtually no one is likely to totally agree with my choices, nor the order in which I have listed them. My choices are unavoidably subjective to some degree, but I like to think they are also both knowledgeable and reflective of at least a modicum of good taste. In listing the ten most beautiful buildings in the world, I have screened out those structures which, though once quite beautiful (such as the Parthenon in Athens), but which now lie in ruins. I've also not considered architectural/engineering structures, build entirely for show (such as the Eiffel Tower, the Statue of Liberty, or St. Louis' Gateway Arch. Beyond that, I've also not considered buildings that, while they may be architecturally daring, perhaps even pointing the way toward the future in architecture, are at this point problematical, and in some cases even downright ugly (here I'm not going to cite examples). The buildings I've selected, without exception, serve a purpose. They were built to house human activities. Only two are more than a hundred years old. If that shows a bias for the contemporary over the classical, then so be it. The same applies to the fact that two of my choices are works by the same architect. I've already written about several of the buildings listed so I've created links to them so as not to be redundant. I'm hoping some of my choices may be surprising, thus bringing to light some very beautiful creations which thus far may have slipped beneath the architectural radar (so to speak). By the same token, I've no doubt left out some excellent possibilities with which the reader may take issue. If so, by all means make your feelings known in the comments section at the bottom.

Eagles are powerful birds of prey heralded for their strength, and have adapted to be one of the most ferocious avian predators. However, the hunters have become the hunted, with many species now at risk of illegal shooting and poisoning.

Tripura, the land of fourteen gods and million statues : Ujjayanta Palace
Bongsong · 10 months ago
Situated in the heart of the town and covering an area of about half a square mile this palace is a two-storied mansion having a mixed architecture with three domes, the central one being 86 feet high. The construction of this beautiful, well-balanced royal palace was undertaken in 1899 and completed in 1901 at a cost of a little over Rs 10 lakhs. The two large tanks on two sides with the approach road in between them and the well-laid out gardens around the palace with water courses and fountains patterned on the Mughal gardens have added beauty to it. The main block of the palace covers about 80 acres and contains halls like the Throne Room, the Durbar Hall, Library, Study, the Reception Hall, etc. which were furnished with objects of art, curios, chandeliers, etc. A few old manuscripts, books, artistic hand I crafts, musical instruments and some old armouries like (lie historical sword presented to Govinda Manikya by Sultan Suja were some of the many collections that were once on display in different rooms of the palace. A few more blocks, viz., Swet Mahal used as the guest-house, the Banquet Hall, Lal Mahal etc. were subsequently constructed. The palace has been acquired by the state government and now houses the Legislative Assembly, besides a few government offices. This is going to be made states national museum as per the agreement by ATTF, when Assembly hall would be shifted to new Assembly hall being constructed at new capital complex in Khejur bagan.
