What Modern Buildings Will Survive the Centuries?

Real beauty is timeless, and so should be the architectural masterpieces of humanity, right? Well, some of them do have a chance to survive for centuries from now. When you stroll into the Pantheon in Rome, it puts on a show just like it did almost two thousand years ago. Then we’ve got the impressive Hoover Dam in the USA, designed to harness hydroelectricity and prevent water from going where it shouldn’t. While it’s not a single building, the Great Wall of China is an ancient marvel that has survived for centuries. And, luckily, it’s just the beginning of the list.
