Favorite architecture?

[Kagom]

I got to be bored last night and went to look up Russia (since I was curious about their political system, etc.) and I noticed they had a section on Architecture. So I clicked it and I have to say that all the buildings I've seen are not only unique and interesting, but beautiful. My favorite buildings come from the Middle Muscovite era (1530-1630 CE) and are often called Russian Gothic.

So, I was curious what architecture do you guys like and where is it found?

I think you will be hearing from Manu on this question.

Stateside, I'd say one of my favorite buildings is the Luxor Casino and Hotel in Las Vegas. It has a huge blue light that shoots straight up, and you can see it from space. It's shaped like a pyramid, and the interior mimics the exterior, as far as sloped walls go.
