Robot Building

The Bank of Asia is a very famous building in Bangkok. It was built in 1985, and it's robotic appearance is just a symbol of the modernization of banking.

Just 83 meters tall but the appearance is somewhat unique. The architect wanted the building to reflect the modernization of banking procedures and therefore made the building in the shape of a robot, complete with eyes, ears, antennaes and wheels.

Ripley's Building

Looking at this building you would swear that it met with an earthquake...but it wasn't.

The building has now become one of the most photographed in the world.

Most people think California has had the worst earthquake...but actually Missouri holds the record. In 1812 an earthquake measuring more than 8.0 on the Richter Scale occurred at New Madrid, Missouri.

This earthquake made the Mississippi River run backwards for three days and made Church bells ring In Philadelphia omg_smilie.gif

The Wilson Hall

This somewhat modernize building was built between 1971 and 1974. It's unique design gives the Wilson Hall a great sense of structure, and a prominent landmark for the skyline. The building provides big laboratories, offices, and supports space for over 1500 scientists. And it houses all kinds of strange experiments.

135 Degree Angle

This bizarre house really doesn't have an official name, but it does have a 135 degree angle.

Unfortunately, the only info about this house is that it was built in China or Japan. And that it has a silly pink roof.
And if you look real close, you'll notice that it's on a 135 degree [bad word] angle.

The strange building was actually a brewery in Hamburg, Germany.

Take a journey into the unknown with a building called Wonder Works. It's central Florida’s only upside down attraction. And an amusement park for your mind....

This odd building has over 100 wacky interactive exhibits for the entire family to experience.

Crooked House

You know that your looking at a real building right? The Crooked House was built in 2004 as an addition at a popular shopping center and is a major tourist attraction in Sopot, Poland.

Though it looks like something out of a surrealist painting...or a Disney cartoon it is known as Krzywy Domek "Crooked House"

Behind the "dancing facade" that has proven to be a popular tourist attraction since it opened can be found restaurants, bars, shops and commercial office space.
