Located in southwest Bolivia, near the crest of the Andes, it is covered
by a few meters of salt crust, which has an extraordinary flatness with
the average altitude variations within one meter over the entire area
of the Salar. The large area, clear skies and exceptional surface
flatness make the Salar an ideal object for calibrating the altimeters
of Earth observation satellites.

Narrow Windows Hotel in Moscow
Small rooms, narrow windows and little furniture – for some it may sound
like Harry Potter’s basement, but in reality they’re rooms in a
brand-new capsule hotel in central Moscow, which looks like a space
orbital.

Hotel that holding 20,000 bedrooms but not used
Photo — Link
Stretching for over three miles along the white sandy beach on Germany's
Baltic Sea island of Ruegen, lies the world’s biggest hotel with 10,000
bedrooms all facing the sea. But for 70 years since it was built, no
holiday maker has ever stayed there. This is hotel Prora, a massive
building complex built between 1936 and 1939 by the Nazis as part of
their "Strength through Joy" ("Kraft durch Freude," KdF) programme. The
aim was to provide leisure activities for German workers and spread Nazi
propaganda. Locals call Prora the Colossus because of its monumental
structure.
