Skyscraper - This is not necessarily a gray rectangular box made of glass and concrete. Modern architects demonstrate the wonders of ingenuity by erecting multi-meter buildings of the most incredible forms.

  • 3. Kingdom Center, Riyadh
  • 2. Turning Torso, Malmo

9. Bourge al-Arab, Dubai

The famous Sail is the most photographed building in the world. The height of the skyscraper is 321 meters, it is located on an artificial island connected to the continent by a 300-meter concrete road. Here is one of the most expensive hotels in the world.

4. Torres de Hercules, Andalusia

The height of the two towers, united by a glazed passage, is 126 meters. The attention to the skyscraper is attracted by the unusual concrete decor of the facade, which is a pattern with the phrase “Non Plus Ultra” encrypted in it (nowhere else).
