Modern architecture never ceases to amaze me. You have probably seen photos of a house in the form of a piano, a floating restaurant in the form of a whale, or a tennis court is hidden underwater, in which real marine inhabitants swim. Yes, this is real art! But not only above-ground but also underground architecture can surprise. This is confirmed by the unique metro stations located in different parts of the world.
