Walking around the building, I couldn't help but be captivated by the statues on the roof. Quite a few locations in Europe had these similar kinds of architecture. I bet the inner courtyard is equally fabulous too.

PhotoHunt - School
One of the beautiful school buildings I came across in Austria is the Vienna University of Technology. It's not only impressive, it is among the most successful technical schools across Europe and is Austria’s largest scientific technical research and educational institution.

What an inspiring place to go to school!
ReplyDeleteFamouse, not because of the fabulous Architecture, but mostly from it's high class education and results
ReplyDeleteSomeone put some thought and hard work into the architecture there. Awesome!
ReplyDeleteI suppose each of the statues has a story to tell right?
ReplyDeleteHave this solid and secured feeling while looking at the buildings..tQ
ReplyDeleteThat is quite the impressive school. I'd probably study quite hard since it probably is difficult to get in.
ReplyDeleteI love this building!! Looks really nice! And those statues are magnificent!
ReplyDeleteI love old European buildings and used to spend hours strolling the streets alone in US East Coasts to admire and dream! The feeling was nice!
