2 The empire state building

empire state building inspired me to become an architect. Because in my personal opinion , it is on of the most beautiful and majestic buildings in the world. it is also one of the earliest mordern skyscrapers in the world. I think it is a great achievement(for it's time at least) because a building of it's height(102 levels) was a relatively new thing for the late 1920s and early 1930s. and unlike most of today's high-rise buildings, the Empire State Building has a classic façade.The lobby alone is three stories high . In the early 1960s, floodlights were added to decorate the top of building at night. it is an icon of New York city.

3 Versailles Palace

to me this is one of the most beautiful creation of mankind. the Court of Versailles was the centre of power inAncien Regiem France. Versailles is famous not only as a work of art, but as a symbol of the system of french imperial power which Louis XIV espoused. many rooms are decorated with an touch of Italian flavour. and many rooms are named after Roman gods. for examples there are salon de mars, salon de mercue and salon de Diane. one of the most famose part of the palace is the hall of mirrors which not only looked magnificent docorated with huge windows , but also of great historical significance( the Versalliestreaty that ended world war one was signed here).
