Hotel "Ryugёn" - terrible miracle in North Korea

This project is built for fifteen years and had become a symbol of the prosperity of the communist country. But it turned out quite the opposite. 105 floors and 330 meters high concrete - a good indicator. It is a pity that only numbers and impressive.

Initially, it was planned that the surrender of the first stage the highest and the multi-storey hotel in the world will end in the year 1989. However, funding problems are not allowed to realize the plans. In 1992 completed the construction of the walls. Building in Pyongyang consists of three wings, which converge at the top of a 14-storey circular tower, 6 lower floors which are fixed, and the other eight can be rotated. The hotel is three thousand rooms. Four years ago, the construction resumed and planning to open on April 15 of this year. In exactly to the 100th anniversary of the birth of former leader - Kim Il Sung.
