I can't believe they didn't include that hotel in North Korea. I'm fascinated by that hotel.

![]() It's funny you say that, because the place where I found this nominated the Hotel of Doom for the list. |

Yeah, I love that hotel. I'd take a vacation there if the hotel was habitable and ... well, if North Korea was habitable.
Lenin is still looking pretty good.

I hadn't heard of the Hotel of doom until this thread. that P.O.S. is hillarious. there's still a crane for construction stuck up on top.

I'm shocked they missed number one:
The Motherland Calls statue in Russia to honor the dead in the Battle of Stalingrad (WWII): From wikipedia: "When memorial was dedicated in 1967 it was the tallest sculpture in the world, measuring 85 meters (279 feet) from the tip of her sword to the top of the plinth. . . . It appears on both the current flag and coat of arms of Volgograd Oblast." ![]() |
