Le Atomium

posted by Keir on 23 March 2007 at 11:55

The Atomium is one of the most unusual buildings I have ever seen. It's a 100+ metre tall model of an iron crystal. Each 'iron atom' is a room and the 'bonds' contain escalators and stairs so you can travel between them, and enjoy the views. For novelty value this building gets 10 out of 10! When I visited it was being renovated but I believe the original contents of the museum are back in place now.
