Iguazu is made up of approximately 270 individual falls. Their width reaches 2700 meters, but only in total. All waterfalls are separated from each other by many islands of different sizes, and those are connected by bridges, along which you can walk and get a better view of all the streams. The largest waterfall of this cascade bears the ominous name "Devil's Throat" and is the border between Brazil and Argentina. The width of the “throat” is 150 meters, the length is 700 meters. In shape, it is more like a horseshoe, and 14 powerful streams fall down it.
The famous Niagara Falls “against the background of Iguazu looks like a jet of water from a kitchen tap” - these words belong to the wife of American President Franklin Roosevelt, Eleanor. And the first lady of America did not exaggerate her impression. The height of the Niagara Falls from Canada is 53 meters, and in the USA, due to the heap of stones, it is 21 meters at all. Whereas Iguazu overthrows his waters from a height of 60-80 meters.
This is the longest underwater cave in Russia, the second longest in Eurasia and the world's largest underwater gypsum cave. It has been given the status of a national natural monument. Orda Cave is located on the southwestern outskirts of the village of Orda in the Perm Territory, on the left bank of the Kungur River. It is embedded in gypsum and anhydrite of Permian age. Consists of "dry" and underwater parts. The length of the dry part is 300 meters, underwater - 5150 meters. Part of the cave is the longest siphon in the CIS - 985 meters. Ordinskaya differs from other underwater caves in the world in that it is gypsum, as well as low water temperature (+4 degrees Celsius), huge volumes of underground galleries, water transparency, and low turbidity.
Cave photography is considered the most difficult among all underwater scenes. The overhead environment, the inability to ascend when you need to, the loss of visibility, the narrowness in which you have to squeeze under water, complete darkness - this is not a complete list of the difficulties that you have to face when swimming in a cave.
Launching cameras into near space is carried out using balloons filled with helium. The ball rises to a height of 35-37 kilometers, gradually increasing in size, reaching the size of a three-story house at this height, after which it bursts, and the cameras land safely on the ground by parachute. Almost complete calm gave good forecasts for the launch of the probe. There are many factors to consider before launching. Cameras have to operate in extremely cold conditions, which can damage batteries, and lenses can become fogged up or covered with ice crystals. Flying with the cameras are several GPS search beacons that can be used to locate the cameras after they parachute down. They also have rejections. Therefore, the assembly of the entire structure for shooting takes place very carefully.
On the 700-meter mountain of Corcovado stands a gigantic figure of Christ, spreading his arms over the city, as if blessing this land. Every year, almost 2 million tourists and locals climb to the top of the mountain to take pictures in front of the “for good luck” monument. The exact dimensions of the monument to Christ the Redeemer in Rio are: height - 38 meters, including the pedestal - 8 meters; weight - 1145 tons, arm span - 30 meters. It is generally accepted that the idea of its creation arose in 1922, when the 100th anniversary of Brazil's independence was celebrated. However, in fact, the history of the statue goes back much further. In 1932 and 2000, the night illumination system was upgraded. And in 2007, this famous Rio de Janeiro landmark was chosen as one of the New Seven Wonders of the World.
New York is the most famous city in the USA, and Manhattan in New York is the most famous area. And it all began four hundred years ago, when the loudest and most profitable real estate transaction in the history of mankind was made: for $ 24, the Indians sold the Europeans a plot of this land that they did not really need. In addition to numerous museums, almost every building here is a monument. Old houses are perfectly combined with the best examples of modern architecture. Here are a lot of the most famous sights of New York, including the famous aforementioned Empire State Building, Central Park and Times Square. And colorful Chinatown, and bright Broadway - all this is located on this island.
St. Petersburg is the European "gate" of Russia, its strategic center, directly bordering the countries of the European Union. This is one of the most beautiful cities in Europe, which has played an important role in Russian history.
Modern St. Petersburg is an important cultural and industrial center and the largest seaport. Infrastructural development and location make the city an important trade and center.
The Egyptian pyramids are the greatest architectural monuments of Ancient Egypt, including one of the "seven wonders of the world" - the Cheops pyramid and an honorary candidate for the "new seven wonders of the world" - the Pyramids of Giza. Pyramids are huge pyramid-shaped stone structures used as tombs for the pharaohs of ancient Egypt. The word "pyramid" - Greek, means a polyhedron. According to some researchers, a large pile of wheat became the prototype of the pyramid. According to other scientists, this word comes from the name of the funeral cake of a pyramidal shape. A total of 118 pyramids have been discovered in Egypt.
France is one of the most famous countries in Europe, and Paris is perhaps the most famous city in the world. It is rightly called the "City of Light", but not at all because of the abundant lighting: after all, any other modern metropolis could be called that. No: the whole point is that the capital of France for many centuries was the center of education, art and philosophy. "Paris is a holiday that is always with you." So said the famous American writer Ernest Hemingway, and probably every person can subscribe to these words - no matter whether he has been there or not. Paris is a symbol of romance and the cradle of European culture.
Due to its size, Akshardham is included in the Guinness Book of Records. The complex, which occupies 12 hectares, includes not only the temple itself, but also several parks, a museum, a large cultural center where you can get acquainted with the national characteristics and traditions of India, water channels along which you can go boating, as well as many cafes and souvenir shops. The temple was built without the use of metal objects. Without cement. Concrete was used only when pouring the foundation. Everything else is stone. Marble and granite for construction were brought from all over the world, then processed according to special schemes and connected to each other by means of grooves. All the columns of the temple are type-setting, and after the connection, the stone parts were rotated by 90 degrees.
Venice is called the "city on the water". Interestingly, there are several other cities in Western Europe where canals serve as streets. Thus, the Belgian Ghent lies on 26 islands connected by 207 bridges. The Dutch capital is located on 26 islands. But it is Venice that holds the palm according to this criterion: it is difficult to break the record of 118 islands, 150 canals and 400 bridges! Step by step, the Adriatic is advancing and winning: only during the 20th century, Venice “sank” by 23 centimeters. Presumably, by 2028 the city will completely disappear into the abyss of water.
The first mountain is called Huaynu Picchu and the second is Machu Picchu and is much less frequently visited by tourists. To climb to its top, you need to overcome a height difference of about 500 meters. The path is a stone path, consisting of steps. The steps are counted - there are 1700 of them! The ascent usually takes 1.5 hours. The view of the city from the top is amazing! Definitely worth the effort and time to climb.
The Chinese-Nepalese border passes through the top of the highest mountain in the world (8848 meters). Or Tibetan-Nepalese. Depends on the political preferences of the reader. Everest is part of the Himalayas - a rather thin strip of mountains separating the Indian tectonic platform and the Asian (Tibetan Plateau). Ten 8-thousanders out of 14 are concentrated in the Himalayas, the rest - in the neighboring Karakorum. There are two popular routes to the top of Everest - from the north, from Tibet, and from the southwest from Nepal. The latter is a bit easier and has attracted more climbers in recent years. For tourists, the goal is the base camp - the place where all the expeditions are located, getting the necessary acclimatization. In Tibet, you can use a jeep and get to the camp at a height (5149) in just a couple of days. From the side of Nepal, tourists have to travel on their own, at least a week on foot, to find themselves under the walls of Everest. However, this route rewards with unforgettable mountain views and magnificent nature of different climatic zones.
Hong Kong is both a city and a state, and (most accurately) a special administrative region within the People's Republic of China. He really is quite "special" in all respects. Hong Kong is one of the world's centers of financial flows, and this imposes certain obligations on residents, forms its external architectural appearance (it was here that the first skyscrapers in China appeared), and, finally, a separate administrative status allows Hong Kong to have its own laws, which it enjoys using .
Dubai traces its history back to the 7th century, but few people associate this largest city of the United Arab Emirates with antiquity. Its most capacious characteristic is the "City of the Future": after all, nowhere on the planet is there so many incredible architectural structures, ultra-modern and even ahead of their time. Here is just a small list of Dubai attractions. The Burj Khalifa skyscraper, looking either like a stalagmite, or like a desert flower with thin petals. A seven-star sail-shaped Burj Al Arab hotel on a separate man-made island (Burj Al Arab rooms start at $1,000 a night!). A 150-meter musical fountain that simultaneously raises 83,000 liters of water into the air to the sounds of Arab and world hits.
There are fifty states in the USA, and the latest by the date of inclusion in their number is Hawaii: amazing islands lying in the center of the Pacific Ocean in the Northern Hemisphere, at a considerable distance from the continent. The Hawaiian archipelago consists of twenty-four islands and atolls, as well as many smaller islets. They were inhabited as early as the 6th century BC, but for many centuries, during the legendary round-the-world voyages of the era of the Great Geographical Discoveries, navigators sailed either south or north. Therefore, for a very long time the Hawaiian Islands did not appear on the map and were not known to anyone.
The tops of the skyscrapers shone yellow, the bay was softly illuminated, and the fog, the magnificent fog shimmering in shades of red in the setting sun, the fog that I had been waiting for 20 years, flowed in continuous streams from the Russian Hills onto the city and dissolved in it.
The discovery of the Cape of Good Hope - a geographical place with perhaps the most romantic name in the world - belongs to the Portuguese navigator Bartolomeo Diaz. However, later, with the development of cartography, it turned out that the real "southernmost point of Africa" is not the Cape of Good Hope, but Cape Agulhas, located 155 km to the southeast. But by that time, tourists had already trodden wide paths to the impostor discovered by Bartolomeo Diaz, and the authorities limited themselves to replacing the sign with the new “Southwesternmost Point of Africa”
The total height of the waterfall is 979 meters, and the height of the continuous fall of water is 807 meters. The height of the fall is so great that, before reaching the ground, the water is sprayed into tiny particles and turns into fog. It should be mentioned that Venezuela is a unique country in general. In addition to Hugo Chavez and the price of gasoline (a full tank of a jeep costs 100 rubles), there are tepui. These are such strange-looking mountains with a truncated flat top, called "canteens" in the world (apparently, because they are flat like a table). That is, imagine a kilometer-high cliff in a dense jungle, with vertical sheer walls and flat tops. Therefore, water accumulates there after any rain and subsequently flows down numerous waterfalls.
The Maldives is strongly associated with a serene lazy vacation, full of measured bliss and secluded tranquility. Their remoteness from Europe (for example, a flight from Moscow takes 8-9 hours) and a high, respectively, not cheap level of service make the Maldives accessible not to such a huge number of vacationers as, for example, Turkey or Egypt. The unique concept of the Maldives resorts is "one island - one resort - one hotel", each with its own unique atmosphere and design.
Swiss St. Moritz is rightfully considered the king of the Alpine ski resorts. "Aristocratic", "cosmopolitan" and "respectable" - this is all about St. Moritz: a favorite vacation spot for representatives of royal dynasties, billionaires, politicians and show business stars. St. Moritz (panoramas No. 3 and 9) is located on the shores of the lake of the same name, in the Engadine region of the canton of Grisons at an altitude of 1856 meters above sea level. The village itself has 5,600 inhabitants today; in the high season, they add another 3,000 service workers and thousands of tourists. There are good conditions for trained skiers: 36 "black" slopes and 136 "red" slopes, as well as many opportunities for snowboarders, lovers of flat skiing and skating. The total length of the region's ski slopes is 350 km, the flat ones - 150 km.

The authorship of the term “skyline” belongs to Academician Dmitry Likhachev - in 1989, in his article “The Skyline of the City on the Neva”, he noted that in many respects St. all other lines are drawn. In English there is the concept of skyline (sky line). This is not a horizon line in our sense of the word. The meaning of skyline is wider: it includes the line connecting the mountains and the sky (where there is no horizon, from our point of view), the lines of houses and the sky, and so on. The jagged, as if trembling line of houses against the sky creates the impression of illusory, ephemeral.
It is thanks to this feature of urban development that it is enough to rise to a height of 50 meters to see the city at a glance. For this, adventure lovers make their way to the roofs of houses in the city center, which, of course, is interesting, but not safe. And the most desperate thrill-seekers are ready to climb the TV tower or the dome of the Cathedral Mosque for the sake of adrenaline and a couple of impressive photos.
But there are many completely legal ways to see the Northern capital, if not from a bird's eye view, then certainly from the height of the same mosque. the site offers a selection of places where the most picturesque view of the city opens and there is an opportunity to take good pictures.
Colonnade of St. Isaac's Cathedral
St. Isaac's Square, 4
- From 10.30 to 18.00 from May 1 to October 31 daily, from November 1 to April 30 day off - the first and third Wednesday of the month.

- Colonnade of "white nights" from 18.00 to 4.30 (operates from June 1 to August 20, on Wednesdays - from 10.30 to 22.30)
It offers a view of St. Isaac's Square and the central part of the city, including the famous "Nevsky three-beam": Nevsky and Voznesensky avenues and Gorokhovaya street.
In the summer season, you can climb the colonnade in the evening and at night - at this time the panorama of the Neva is especially beautiful, and if you guess the time, you can admire the bridges from above.
In summer, Isaac's colonnade is allowed day and night. Photo: AiF / Ksenia Matveeva
Night rise will cost twice as much - 300 rubles. Photo and video shooting is allowed without the use of a tripod and additional lighting.
Belfry of the Smolny Cathedral
Rastrelli square, 1
- From 10.30 to 18.00, day off - Wednesday
This is the highest public observation point in the center of the Northern capital, it is located at a height of 50 meters, and 227 steps lead to it. The site offers a panorama of the bend of the Neva, the Resurrection Smolny Monastery and the Smolny Institute, the excavations of the Nienschanz fortress are visible.
The entrance to the belfry during the day with an 18-minute audio tour will cost only 100 rubles, but you won’t be able to get here at night.
Bell tower of the Peter and Paul Cathedral
Peter and Paul Fortress, Cathedral Square, 1
- Sessions: 11.30, 13.00, 14.30, 16.00 from May 1 to September 30, day off - Wednesday
- By application: from October 1 to April 30
The bell tower, crowned with the famous spire with an angel, is only a meter inferior to the colonnade of St. Isaac's Cathedral - its height is 42 meters. The observation deck is located on the second of the three tiers of the attic. Most likely, you will not be able to take an outstanding photo, because the view is blocked by bells and a grid. But that doesn't stop you from admiring the city.
You can’t climb the spire, but you can wander around the bell tower. Photo: commons.wikimedia.org
From January 1 to April 30 and from October 1 to December 31, you can go here only as part of an excursion group of up to 10 people. From May 1 to September 30, you can visit the bell tower on your own for 150 rubles.
From here you can see Vasilyevsky Island and the Petrograd side, and on the other side - the Admiralteyskaya and Palace embankments. On the way to the bell tower and under its vault, you can also see a small exposition dedicated to its construction, protection during World War II and subsequent restoration. You can go to the bell tower on any day except Wednesday.
Carl Bulla Photo Studio
Nevsky prospect, 54
- Daily from 10.00 to 20.00
It is best to admire the panorama of Nevsky Prospekt from above. Photo: www.russianlook.com The lowest, but also the cheapest observation deck in the center of St. Petersburg. The famous photo artist's studio was located on the top floor of the building at 54 Nevsky Prospekt at the beginning of the 20th century. Now the premises are occupied by a photo studio owned by the Karl Bulla Foundation for Historical Photography. There is a small museum of the former owner's art and sometimes photo exhibitions are held here.
Bulla himself often took pictures of the views of St. Petersburg, opening from the windows of the photo studio. There is a spacious viewing balcony right under the roof, which offers a view of Nevsky Prospekt and Sadovaya Street, Ostrovsky Square and the building of the Russian National Library.
You can admire the view for 50 rubles, but the enterprising descendants of Bulla are not allowed to take pictures for free. Amateur photography of the panorama of Nevsky Prospekt costs 100 rubles, and professional photography costs 1000 rubles.
Leader Tower Business Center
Constitution Square, 7
Perhaps the first building in St. Petersburg that bypassed the height of the 121-meter Peter and Paul Cathedral is the Leader Tower skyscraper near the Moskovskaya metro station. The height of the 40-storey building is 140 meters, and a panoramic restaurant opened on the top floor this spring, from which you can go to the roof of the building.
An observation deck is equipped on the roof, which offers a view of the Constitution Square and the city center, as well as the Pulkovo Heights.
The roof of the loft project "Etazhi"
Ligovsky prospect, 74
- From 9.00 to 21.00 all year round without days off
The loft project, located in the former building of the Smolninsky bakery, at first offered visitors only access to the fourth floor terrace, but in 2012 decided to take advantage of its location and launched the Roof project.
Ligovsky Prospekt can be viewed from a height of 25 meters. Photo: loft project "Etazhi"
You can go upstairs for 250 rubles if you come after 11.00, and from 09.00 to 11.00 the entrance is completely free. From the roof of 1200 square meters you can see Ligovsky Prospekt, Uprising Square and the surrounding area.
The beauty of modern architecture, of course, is not for everyone, but panoramas with a scattering of luminous skyscrapers cannot but impress.

I suggest you look at the most impressive city panoramas that reveal the beauty of cities. And all the greatness of big cities, as you know, can only be appreciated from a bird's eye view and non-standard points.
Sydney, Australia
The skyline of Sydney is well recognizable mainly due to the characteristic outlines of the Sydney Opera House. The building was built in 1973 and a few years ago was included in the UNESCO list. In addition to the harbor and downtown skyscrapers, Sydney also boasts some historic buildings built in the early 19th century.Moscow
The architecture of our capital spans several centuries, starting with St. Basil's Cathedral, built in the middle of the 16th century, ending with the towers of Moscow City with the highest skyscraper in Europe (Mercury City Tower). Over the past 20 years, Moscow has been experiencing a construction boom, which, unfortunately, often leads to the demolition of historical monuments, which in turn causes a wave of criticism of local authorities.Warsaw Poland
The long-suffering capital of Poland was destroyed and rebuilt several times, which affected its current appearance. Warsaw grew mainly in breadth, not up. The tallest building in the city, and indeed in the whole country, the "Stalin skyscraper" Palace of Culture and Science, has been holding this title since 1955.Miami, USA
Leading the Miami skyline is the 64-story Four Seasons Hotel. This is one of 60 high-rise buildings erected during the building boom of the late 90s. However, construction on the 308-meter skyscraper One Bayfront Plaza will start next year, which is quite surprising, given the very tight restrictions on the height of buildings in Miami, because the busy airway of the local airport passes right above the city center.Tokyo, Japan
The capital of Japan is subject to frequent earthquakes, it is for this reason that the city grows strongly in breadth, and not up. Japanese engineers focus more on the quality and technology of construction than on the height of buildings. Recent achievements in this area already allow the Japanese to build 40- and even 50-story buildings that are ready to withstand even very strong earthquakes. The tallest building in the city, the Tokyo Skytree is the tallest tower in the world.Cairo, Egypt
The largest city in Africa is famous for its minarets and mosques, and even more so for the pyramids of Giza towering on the horizon. The skylan of Cairo is relatively low, the tallest building being the 39-story Ministry of Foreign Affairs.Bangkok, Thailand
Bangkok was founded in 1782 and has since grown into a huge metropolis and tourism center throughout Southeast Asia. The tallest building in the city is Baiyoke Tower 2. From the 5th to the 17th floors of the building there is a multi-storey car park, from 22nd to 74th there are rooms of the Bayyoke Sky Hotel - the highest hotel in Southeast Asia and the third in the world. Apart from the giant skyscrapers in the financial district, Bangkok has well preserved its traditional heritage. For example, the Grand Palace with its numerous Buddhist temples.St. Louis, USA
The skyline of St. Louis is impossible to confuse with any other city thanks to the outlines of the arch of the Gateway of the West. The height of this building is 192 meters, at the very top there is an observation deck. Coincidentally, the arch was built by MacDonald Construction and resembles part of the McDonald's logo.Buenos Aires, Argentina
The architecture of the Argentine capital is influenced by European traditions. Buenos Aires is even called South American Paris. There are a lot of high-rise residential buildings in the city, which is due to the desire of the authorities to provide housing for the huge population of the city: 12 million people with suburbs. The tallest building in the city, the 44-story Torre Cavia skyscraper, is also residential.Jakarta, Indonesia
In Jakarta, ultra-modern buildings sit side by side with traditional Indonesian architecture. The tourist boom of recent years has spurred the active construction of nightclubs and luxury hotels, the tallest of which was the Ciputra World Hotel built last year. And the most beautiful building is, without a doubt, Wisma 46, with its stark silver spire and turquoise façade.
Shanghai, China
One of the most densely populated metropolitan areas in the world with a population of 22 million. Shanghai has experienced an incredible building boom since the 1990s, with more than 7,000 high-rise buildings completed in the last 20 years. The tallest building in the city, the Shanghai World Financial Center, has 101 floors. Perhaps the most interesting building is the Oriental Pearl TV Tower.
New York, USA
The skyline of Manhattan is one of the most recognizable in the world. The main highlight of urban development is the Empire State skyscraper, built in 1930, until 1972 it was the tallest building in New York. Now this title belongs to the recently completed skyscraper One World Trade Center, which was built on the site of the fall of the twin towers.
London, Great Britain
Despite the fact that London cannot boast of a large number of high-rise buildings, its panorama is no less interesting. The architecture of the city spans several centuries, from such historical sights as Big Ben, the Palace of Westminster and the Tower Bridge, ending with the latest architectural creations, including the London Eye Ferris wheel and the triangular skyscraper The Shard (“Shard”).
Dubai, UAE
Dubai holds the world record for the number of buildings taller than 250 meters. Some 70 years ago, there was a bare desert here, but after oil was discovered in the UAE, the capital began to grow by leaps and bounds. The main architectural achievement of Dubai was the Burj Khalifa skyscraper, currently the tallest building in the world.
Vancouver, Canada
Thanks to a competent urban policy, Vancouver has been considered one of the most livable cities for many years. City authorities are increasingly giving preference to high-rise buildings. The tallest building in Vancouver is the Living Shangri-La skyscraper, a 62-story building with a five-star hotel, offices and apartments.
Hong Kong
Hong Kong boasts one of the most beautiful panoramas in the world. The density of urban development here is so high that Hong Kong has received the title of the most "vertical city" in the world. The tallest building in the city is the 484-meter International Commerce Center. It also ranks third in the list of tallest buildings in the world.
Singapore
The city-state of Singapore is one of the world's most important financial centers, which could not affect urban development. The tallest buildings in the city are located in its historical center. But the most interesting building is a bit aloof, the recently completed luxury hotel Marina Bay Sands, the most expensive building in the world at $5.7 billion.
San Francisco, USA
San Francisco is the second most densely populated city in the US, after New York. The most recognizable building in the city is, of course, the Golden Gate Bridge. But the dominant place in the skyline of San Francisco is occupied by the Transamerica skyscraper - a low building, but with a very recognizable spire. Due to frequent earthquakes in the city, they try not to build very tall buildings.
Istanbul, Türkiye
The city panorama of Istanbul harmoniously combines the old and the newest architecture. The highest point of the city is Camlika Hill, where the newest mosque will soon be built.
Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
The architecture of Kuala Lumpur combines modern trends with ancient Asian traditions, and the famous Petronas Towers, made in the "Islamic style", have become the hallmark of the city.
Seattle, USA
The skyline of Seattle is well recognizable thanks to the observation tower Space Needle. It is built to withstand hurricanes with winds up to 320 km/h and earthquakes up to 9.1. And the largest building in the city is the Starbucks headquarters, its area is more than 186,000 sq.m.
Paris, France
The authorities of Paris are making great efforts to preserve the unique appearance of the city, because of this, there are practically no tall buildings in the historical center. The only exceptions are the solitary Eiffel Tower and the Montparnasse skyscraper. All high-rise construction is concentrated in the La Defense quarter.
Panama, Panama
The skyline of Panama City is changing rapidly. In the near future, it will look completely different: about 100 high-rise projects are under construction.
Philadelphia, USA
Philadelphia's development is one of the oldest and most historically significant in the country. For example, there is Independence Hall, the building where the US Declaration of Independence was signed in 1776. In accordance with one of the laws of the city, no new building should be higher than the city hall building. For this reason, until 1987, when the law was finally repealed, Philadelphia remained a city without high-rise buildings.
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Although Rio is best known for the statue of Christ the Redeemer on Mount Corcovado, the architecture of the city itself deserves attention too. The list of the tallest buildings in the city is topped by the 40-storey shopping center Rio Sul.
Beijing, China
Beijing has served as the country's capital since the 13th century. While the most famous sights in Beijing are the Forbidden City and the Temple of Heaven, some great examples of modern architecture can be found here as well. For example, the tallest building in the city is the 3rd Tower of the China World Trade Center, or the CCTV headquarters building, which has a very unusual shape.
Toronto, Canada
Against the backdrop of the skyline of the largest Canadian metropolis, one building stands out - the CN Tower - a symbol of the city and the tallest building in the world from 1976 until 2007. The tower lost this title to the previously mentioned Burj Khalifa skyscraper. CN Tower is only 13 meters higher than the Ostankino TV tower.
Taipei, Taiwan
In the center of Taipei rises one of the tallest buildings in the world, the 509-meter skyscraper Taipei 101. The danger of collapse in a hurricane or earthquake reduces the huge 660-ton pendulum ball, placed between the 87th and 91st floors. According to engineers, the tower will be able to withstand an earthquake of the magnitude that occurs in this area once every 2,500 years.
