Great architecture is a thing of marvel,
all the intricacies of the structure and what it is meant to convey and
signify. Styles have changed over the ages and the art has taken
different forms but there are some architects/artists who have paid
special attention mostly to the entrances of a space. Here, are 8 of the
most amazing entrances known to man.
The
entrance to the Bockenheimer Warte Subway Station in Frankfurt, Germany
is just one of those things that you stumble upon while walking down
the road and marvel at. The architect was inspired by Belgian surrealist
painter Rene Magritte to conceive of this beauty.
Looking
like something out of a Tolkien novel, this is the North entrance to
St. Edward's Church, built betweent he 11th and 15th century, in Stow on
the Wold, England.
The
Ras Mohommed National Park, Egypt is a protected marine area, the
entrance to which is a beautiful stone structure over the road to the
park.
Designed
by architect Terry Nicholson, the Wonderworks Museum, containing
interactive, entertainment exhibits on space, physic and math, are made
to look as if they were ravaged by nature and dropped onto another
building.
The Dotonbori Hotel in Osaka has a very amusing and artistic entrance.
The
entrance to the children's section of the Cerritos Millennium Museum in
Cerritos, California is creatively built and definitely the kind of
place children would like to enter.
The
Oak Alley in Louisiana is a National Historic Landmark which was
previously a plantation. The entrance to Oak Valley is lined with
beautiful Oak Trees and it is just a sight to see.
The Back entrance to a random park with a creative imagination.
