48 Seriously Unique Buildings That Follow Their Own Set of Rules

Smokestacks are ominous on their own, but add in a stormy sky and a scary brick building, and the results are horror film material. This is actually a hotel nestled near the smokestacks in Kapotnya, Russia. The city has been fined many times for the amount of pollution they’re pumping into the environment.

If you truly need a place to stay in this town, look for literally any other accommodations available. There’s a gorgeous cathedral over 2km away that encompasses the best of Russian architecture! Recent work has begun to create a biosphere to contain the pollution, making this city healthier overall. A lot of work still needs to be done, though.
