A Treehouse Restaurant in Okinawa, Japan has leaded our knowledge of a traditional ‘tree house’ to another level. This restaurant offers ‘local grown and organic harvested foods fresh from farm’ to match its design. Although the structure base is not an actual banyan tree, the architectural design is mimicking the plant-life in a larger-than-life replica that soar 20 feet high and presents the destination in an eye-catching manner. Customers can either climb the winding staircase at the back or use the elevator that shoots up through the foundation’s tree trunk.

Many people would say this is an ‘upside down house’ when looking at it. However, this is "The World Stands on its Head" in Germany. Unlike other ‘special/ rare design’ building, the creators said they just built it for ‘no reason’. What make this “The World Stands on its Head” house more special is that- not just the exterior is upside down but every room every item in this house is upside down.

St Louis City Museum’s in Missouri, USA unlike a normal museum, it is for all ages and consists largely of repurposed architectural and industrial objects. One of the most famous attractions is the Enchanted Caves and Shoes Shafts that run through the centre of the Museum- all the way to 10th floor. In which guests will find an elaborate cave system hand-sculpted and from every direction, a different creature is staring back. In 2008 a second shoe slide was opened and the starts at the roof and goes down to the caves’ entrance. It is not just a museum, it is a place where you could stay and enjoy for a day.
