Stumbled on this tonight, and it’s a great piece of architecture.
I don’t know what it is, though.
However, in its small way it’s as cool as the Petronas Twin Towers in Kuala Lumpur.

The Petronas Twin Towers have to be the most impressive architecture I have ever had the fortune to see. What you see on this picture is exactly what you get, but to see in a picture you can never appreciate the sheer size.
