The Ryugyong Hotel
Great blog story about the bizarre Ryugyong Hotel in Pyongyang. It's 1,000 feet tall, has no windows, and looks like Dr. Evil's mountain fortress. And hasn't been finished. It completely dominates the skyline of Pyongyang (and I recommend checking out the really big version of the picture of the skyline for some impressively depressing totalitarian architecture/city plan), yet it doesn't appear on city maps and "[g]uides claim not to know where it is."
