The great pyramid.
Saint Peters in Rome is also very impressive.
I do want to see Notre Dame again now that it is rebuilt.

Oh, and Gardens by the bay in Singapore. It's a mountain with waterfalls inside a large air conditioned dome.

For me, it's always been The Taj Mahal. I was there, back in the 90's..


Commissioned in 1631, completed in 1648, and in 42 acres of grounds...other buildings were finished in around 1653.

Initially, as a mausoleum to hold the then Shah, his wife's, tomb...

Beautiful...declaration of love....pristine.....and so bloody white!

Seeing it in pictures is one thing.....but, in real life?

I'm quite fond of the Pantheon in Rome. Rebuilt in the years 118-128 under Hadrian, it was the largest dome in the world for over 1000 years (Duomo in Florence exceeded it), and is still is the largest unreinforced concrete dome in the world. Yo, Hadrian!!


43.3m (142 ft) diameter

The slave huts in Tobago..... I felt a chill there in 90+ degree heat that has never left me. It wasn't a tour , we came across them in an area not travelled by tourists.
Never felt anything like that before or since.

A museum in Berlin. On valentines day. Last year, Allah made snow carpet all over Berlin. This year, Mikhail made snow which was okay. But then, Allah made me wear my red jacket, and there was beautiful snow in viva. The kind that I like :)

The Burj Khalifa.. It has to be, doesnt it? Not just the tower, but the massive shopping mall at the foot of it. Its a 2 day exploration. And a cultural experience.😷

probably the lodge at yellowstone

Hiroshima where the atomic bomb was dropped and Alcatraz

actually been in would probably be Fallingwater


just seen up close but not been in would be a handful of other Frank Lloyd Wright buildings — Auldbrass, the Marin County Civic Center (you've seen the latter if you ever watched the movie Gattaca)



I suppose Biltmore is interesting too but not really my style, and the Skylon Tower is neat but really just a glorified observation deck
