Musée Guggenheim (Guggenheim Museum)

Le Guggenheim est admiré autant pour son architecture que pour son art. Le bâtiment a été conçu par Frank Lloyd Wright. L'extérieur en blanc vif et l'intérieur en dôme de verre se combine afin de créer une ambiance moderne et propre. Travail de rénovation, commencé en début des années 1990, y a ajouté une tour à dix étages; l'espace supplémentaire accueille une collection des sculptures et un café donnant au Central Park. Parmi des expositions il y a des uvres par des impressionnistes Kadinsky, Paul Klee, et Picasso

Cathédrale Basile-le-Bienheureux

Collection envoûtante de couleurs vices et de dômes à motifs, la cathédrale Basile-le-Bienheureux s’élève à l’extrémité Sud de la place Rouge, et constitue l’un des monuments les plus emblématiques de Russie. Initialement bâtie entre 1555 et 1561 pour commémorer la victoire d’Ivan IV contre les Tatars à Kazan, cette cathédrale était composée de pierres blanches avec des dômes dorés, et les mosaïques de couleurs et de motifs ne furent ajoutées qu’au XVIIe siècle. On en sait peu sur les architectes de cet édifice majestueux et, pendant un temps, la légende raconte que qu’Ivan IV leur fit crever les yeux pour les empêcher de reproduire leur œuvre spectaculaire. Abritant initialement neuf chapelles, une dixième fut ajoutée quelques années plus tard, où se trouve la tombe de Saint-Basile. Bien qu’officiellement nommée la cathédrale de l’Intercession, le surnom plus populaire de ce joyau historique vient de ce fait. La cathédrale Basile-le-Bienheureux est un musée qui attire des foules de visiteurs chaque année, éblouissant chaque personne qui pose les yeux sur sa riche façade.

Dancing House

Arguably the reason for the biggest architectural controversy ever in the city, the post-modern Dancing House portrays a tango couple dancing. Situated on the banks of the Vltava River, the Fred and Ginger Building, built by American Frank Gehry and Vlado Milunic, contains several offices, a street level bar and fancy French restaurant on top. The building is among the most unusual of Prague's varied architectural sights - go and judge its merit for yourself.

Maison Milá - La Pedrera

Antoni Gaudí, l'architecte qui a construit ce joyau du modernisme catalan, a voulu que la façade reflète ses idées romantiques et anti-classiques sur le design. Elle a été construite pour la famille Milà entre 1906 et 1910. Ni la famille ni le public ont été très impressionné, et a été surnommé La Pedrera (carrière de pierre) comme une insulte. C'est seulement plus tard, en 1984 qu'elle a remporté un grand succès lorsque l'UNESCO l'a déclaré Site du Patrimoine Mondial. Maintenant de renommée internationale, La Pedrera ou la Casa Milà est un excellent exemple de l'architecture civile de Gaudi, elle est esthétiquement intéressante et unique, ainsi que remarquablement pratique.

Hundertwasserhaus

Que vous l'aimez ou pas, cette transformation d'un pâté des maisons ternes à un endroit aux couleurs vifs et excentrés par artiste Autrichien Friedensreich Hundertwasser au 3e arrondissement de Vienne est une attraction touristique aussi importante que le Hofburg ou Stephansdom. Hundertwasser a reprisé la ligne droite et a couvert les façades en damiers de couleurs primaires, ajoutant des bulbes et du bardage céramique, et a planté des jardins et des arbres aux toits. À l'intérieur, les appartements contiennent des planchers en terre cuite ondoyante. Le Kunsthaus Wien, un autre transformation de Hundertwasser avec une collection de son art, est à ne pas manquer.
