Strange architecture in all countries of the world

Dutch cube house

The landmark cube house in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, was built by Dutch architect Piet Blom, and its shape is very unique and wonderful.

This building complex is called "Rubik's Cube House" by local people, and it is composed of dozens of cube houses that look like Rubik's Cube. It is unique in that the house is tilted 45 degrees, which allows you to experience a tilted world. I wonder what it's like to live in it.

In fact, living in it is very comfortable and the lighting is very good, so it is welcomed by the local people and has become one of the must-see places for people to visit in the Netherlands.

Austrian Graz Art Museum

The construction of Graz Art Museum is a major part of celebrating Graz's winning the "european capital of culture" in 23, and later it became a landmark building in Graz.

This building is very round, and looks like an alien spaceship. Some people say it looks like a huge blue sea cucumber, which is in sharp contrast with the surrounding red church.

American Basket Building

This basket building is located in Newark, Ohio, USA. The whole shape is like a basket, which seems to be very lifelike.

However, it is actually the headquarters building of Longaberger Basket Company, which specializes in making handmade baskets made of maple leaves. It is really the best example of promoting products.

transparent church in Belgium

This church is located in the south of Limburg, Belgium. It was built in 1983 and designed by two young Belgian architects. This church is about 1 meters high and is made up of a large number of steel plates.

The unique feature of the transparent church is that its walls are mottled and transparent, and it looks transparent from the outside. When you watch the transparent church in the sunset, you can find that the light can penetrate the building, which is very spectacular. Usually churches are sacred, but the open style of this church is very different, attracting more and more people to watch.

China Hangkong Temple

Hangkong Temple is located between the cliffs of Cuiping Peak on the west side of Jinlong Gorge, Hengshan Mountain, hun yuan, Datong City, Shanxi Province. It is known as "Hangkong Temple, half a day high, with three ponytails hanging in the air" and is famous for its precipitousness. Built in the late Northern Wei Dynasty 14 years ago, it is the only unique temple in China where Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism are integrated.

The original name of this temple is "Xuankong Pavilion", and "Xuan" comes from China's traditional religion Taoism, while "Kong" comes from Buddhism. Later, it was renamed as "Hanging Temple" because the whole temple is like hanging on a cliff. In Chinese, "Xuan" and "Xuan" are homonyms, hence the name.

Among the many temples in China, the Hanging Temple is a wonderful building. Generally, temples are built on the flat ground, but this hanging temple seems to be suspended in mid-air, with a tendency to fly in the air, which is breathtaking and strange, giving people a feeling that they can only dream of it.
