 | Hotel Ambos Mundos, architecture, history and beautiful decoration [en/es] | Cuba |
From the moment we approach the hotel, the imposing and well-preserved façade transports us to the glory days of colonial Havana. Its warm tones and neoclassical architecture attract the attention of all passersby. It is adorned with beautiful architectural details, such as wrought iron balconies and cantilevered ceilings of iron and glass structures at each access door. It is worth noting that each door displays a plaque with the hotel's name, adding a distinctive touch.

 | Sri Sudharmalaya Buddhist Temple - Galle Fort Sri Lanka | Sri Lanka |
The entrance part of Sudharmalaya temple has a big difference. Other temples have a higher entrance area but this temple has a small wooden door with arched open windows at the front. Since it was built during the Dutch colonial period, they may have made changes here in their own way. Arched doors and windows are common in the Fort area. At top of the front wall, a pagoda has been created. Since it was built during the Dutch period, it was notable that no objects was created to provide protection to the temple.

 | Estación Central Shopping Center: A Portal Between the Past and the Present | Venezuela |
The facade of the building combines elements of industrial architecture with details that reflect the architectural style of the time. The structure is composed primarily of brick and concrete, materials typical of mid-20th century industrial construction. These materials not only provide durability but also an aesthetic that combines functionality and robustness. It has large glass windows along its facade, in Art Deco style, which allow an excellent entry of natural light.
