It become  a Iconic building.  The tower started to lean during construction because the foundation was built on soft ground that had difficulty supporting the weight. Because of this inaccuracy and failure in engineering it become an attraction which tourists from all over the world wants to see.

When we actually went to this place it wasn’t quite as dramatic as on the photos. The room was brighter and filled with chairs.

However on the day of our group walk the staircase was filled with people and the viewing of the architecture detail was limited. In contrast, we did however get to observe the spatial circulation which we would not have experienced first hand if the reception area were empty. ]]> 2018-10-30 15:32:47 UTC https://padlet.com/sarah_milne1/Berger_distort/wish/298571491 https://padlet.com/sarah_milne1/Berger_distort/wish/298571560 It looks like a church but its a hospital
