Yas Viceroy Hotel, Abu Dhabi
The first hotel to be built over an F1 race circuit, Yas Viceroy Hotel in Dubai is an architectural marvel. It is built next to the space that houses the famous Formula 1 circuit. The two parts of the hotel are held together and connected by a sculpted one-piece of steel, which directly becomes bridge and window on a stretch of the track.
The glance is impressive even in daylight. The sumptuous Yas Viceroy Hotel, however, reveals its spectacular peculiarity when the night comes. A structure of 85,000 square meters, which houses 500 rooms, entirely covered with lights.
Designed by Asymptote Architecture, the hotel is covered by a sort of metallic shell illuminated thanks to the work of Arup Lighting, which worked to manage the automation of the lights. The LEDs change color, the intermittency frequency, light progressively with preset patterns and make the Yas Hotel a kind of huge and bright.

The Japanese tree restaurant
This is sure to bring back memories of childhood when you wanted a tree fort. The Naha Harbor Diner in Okinawa, Japan, is a one-of-a-kind restaurant design that definitely conjures up forestry feelings. Nestled into an enormous Gajumaru tree, with expansive views over the city and an elevator in the trunk, the unusual architecture attracts people from all over the world.
Sadly, the tree is constructed from concrete, but the food, a blend of Asian/Indian fusion, is rumoured to be good and the restaurant is considered a romantic spot to dine.
The restaurant is accessible by both a spiral stairway and an inbuilt tree trunk elevator.
Life has now been explained to you
The first day, God created the dog and said, "Sit all day by the door of your house and bark at anyone who comes in or walks past. For this, I will give you a life span of twenty years."
The dog said, "That's a long time to be barking. How about only ten years and I'll give you back the other ten?"
And God saw it was good.
On the second day, God created the monkey and said, "Entertain people, do tricks, and make them laugh. For this, I'll give you a twenty-year life span."
The monkey said, "Monkey tricks for twenty years? That's a pretty long time to perform. How about I give you back ten like the dog did?"
And God, again saw it was good.
On the third day, God created the cow and said, "You must go into the field with the farmer all day long and suffer under the sun, have calves and give milk to support the farmer's family. For this, I will give you a life span of sixty years."
The cow said, "That's kind of a tough life you want me to live for sixty years. How about twenty and I'll give back the other forty?"
And God agreed it was good.
On the fourth day, God created humans and said, "Eat, sleep, play, marry and enjoy your life. For this, I'll give you twenty years."
But the human said, "Only twenty years? Could you possibly give me my twenty, the forty the cow gave back, the ten the monkey gave back, and the ten the dog gave back; that makes eighty, okay?"
"Okay," said God, "You asked for it."
So that is why for our first twenty years, we eat, sleep, play and enjoy ourselves.
For the next forty years, we slave in the sun to support our family.
For the next ten years, we do monkey tricks to entertain the grandchildren.
And for the last ten years, we sit on the front porch and bark at everyone.
Life has now been explained to you.
There is no need to thank us for this valuable information. We are doing it as a public service.
Dave with his Wife on local restaurant
Dave takes his wife out to a local restaurant and as they're eating their dinner he drops his fork.
A waiter appears and replaces it with a new one.
Dave is very impressed by this and decides to test the waiter by dropping his napkin this time.
Sure enough, the waiter replaces it with a new one.
Dave thinks about this for a moment and then pushes his wife off of her chair...
