In the heart of summer, we press pause and head off on vacation. For those passionate about special places and impressive constructions, everything matters: from the architecture of the city or tourist attractions to Interior design to the room at the hotel where he is staying.
After telling you about The most beautiful hotels in the world Let's focus our attention on a resort built around an impressive structure, the Druzhba Holiday Center in Yalta, Crimea Peninsula.
The hotel was built on the Black Sea coast in 1984 by Ukrainian architect Igor Vasilevski following a contract signed between Russians and Czechs. The idea behind this impressive building is the connection between the two peoples who, years ago, embarked together into space.
It is said that during the Cold War, when it was built, the US Department of Defense went on high alert believing it to be a new type of missile launcher.
The construction is highly earthquake-resistant. Access is gained through a glass bridge supported by giant cement pylons, as is the entire hotel, which continues with a staircase. Access between floors is provided by hidden elevators within the three gigantic legs that support the six-story hotel at height.
At the center of the round structure is a cinema hall, a swimming pool, and a café. Rooms are arranged on concentric circles offering a superb view towards the Black Sea. From a distance, this arrangement of rooms makes the hotel look like a monumental circular saw painted entirely white. Certainly a spectacular building.
