I love this piece of architecture

This the parliament of Bangladesh called " Shangshad Bhaban".Renowned architect Louis Ikhan was the designer of this famous building. The construction of the building was started in 1964, but due to the liberation war the work was disturbed and in 1982 it was completed. There are 9 blocks of the building, it is 163 feet high. The Total area is cover by open court yard, garden & nice lake. Visitors can enter this building on parliament session only by special permission. But parliament premise is open for all if the session of the Parliament is off.I love this piece because the honorable senators of the country represents their region and major decisions are made by them.
