There is a floating opera theater in Austria in the shape of a giant human torso
On this picture, you can see how cranes are mounting the head over the torso. The stage is on Lake Constance, Austria.
I am not a big fan of opera, but would be definitely up for a movie there.

The world’s most daring restaurant
This restaurant sits on a mountain high above Chang Jiang river, a tourist attraction in China.

There are 750,000 concrete bunkers in Albania
There are approximately 750,000 concrete bunkers in Albania, also known as “concrete mushrooms” for their look.
The bunkers were commissioned by the former dictator of Albania, Enver Hoxha. An ally of the Soviet Union and a strong believer in Western invasion, he built these bunkers to protect his country.Fortunately, there was no invasion and the bunkers weren’t needed. Until today, they remain useless. Or almost useless.
Some people use them as homes for animals and agricultural tools.
Local entrepreneurs transformed some of these bunkers into small shops.
Children use them to play.Students suggest to transform them into cheap hostels throughout the country.
Teenagers use them to make out.However, most of the bunkers still remain unused.
