Amazing Architectural Views From Around The World

Oh this world we live in, what a wonderful place it is. Even more so, what a beautiful place it is! Although the natural wonders are absolutely awe-inspiring, there are so many human-made marvels that are simply unbelievable. Structures, buildings, homes, skyscrapers, even things like fences or underpasses haven't missed the Midas touch of genius architects over the years. 

Let's take a look through some of the most amazing (and sometimes understated) architectural feats this world has ever seen!

1. Buildings on the Amalfi Coast, Italy

Small but mighty. 

2. The Solar Furnace in Odeillo, France

Doesn't it contrast with the countryside in a beautiful way? 

3. The Cathedral of Brasília, Brazil

It looks like there's nothing else in the world. 

4. Bill FitzGibbons' light spectacular in the Birmingham Underpass, Alabama 

Look how easily light and color can transform rather blasé architecture into something beautiful! Incredible. 

5. Once again, all it takes is a little color!

Simplicity is the spice of life, right?

6. Calascio Primi Raggi di Sole, Italy

Would you just look at this. 

7. Atlantis, Dubai, UAE

Everybody's favorite. But seriously, how beautiful is this entire area?

9. Heidelberg Castle, Germany

I love everything about this photo. It's framed perfectly. 

10. Abandoned fishing hut, Germany

How incredible does this look? It's so peaceful but unnerving. 

11. Giethoorn, The Netherlands

A city without roads, just water? Yes, beautiful, I want, take me there, now. 

12. Loch Achray, Scotland

The trees are chomping down on that house.
