Eiffel Tower vs TV Mast in Riga, they look similar

dnh310 · February 22nd, 2011, 09:34 PM

Another option can be the city of Mexico vs Sao Paulo...

What a self-confidence

But fully justified as Golden Gate is magnificent.

How about Metro de Paris vs. London underground?

VI@CHESL@V · March 19th, 2011, 11:47 AM

Amsterdam nice city

Mutiix123 · March 19th, 2011, 04:44 PM

What about Macau Tower vs Auckland Sky Tower?

They look similar

Junk · March 20th, 2011, 02:30 PM

Wijnhavenkwartier, The Hague vs. Potsdammerplatz, Berlin (either completed or U/C)

NIXIVOJE_NS · March 22nd, 2011, 10:17 AM

Exit (Novi Sad) or Sziget (Budapest)

joshsam · March 24th, 2011, 07:28 PM

Is there something similar about those two festivals? Or are they linked in some way (not that theu are both festivals)
They don't look to big if you ask me...

Better comparison would be:

Grapop metal meeting (Belgium)130.000 visitors VS Wacken open air (Germany) 85.000 visitors

The two biggest metal events in the world..

ps: More visitors doesn't mean that it is better. Wacken open air is just faster sold out than Graspop Metal meeting.

Another comparison:

Both pop festivals:

Pukkelpop (180.000 visitors) VS Rock werchter (320.000 visitors.)

SteelcityChef · April 2nd, 2011, 08:06 PM

How about Canadian Parliament vs. British Parliament.

GFM 3D · April 3rd, 2011, 07:36 AM

I would suggest...

Architect vs architect
Karl Friedrich Schinkel vs Erich Mendelssohn/Mies van der Rohe/Le Corbusier

or...

Building vs. Building

- Old Reichstag vs French Parliament/Swiss Bundeshaus
- Zytglogge vs Big Ben
- Charlottenburg Palace vs Versailles (or Schloss Monbijou vs Grand Trianon)
- Tower Bridge vs. Brooklyn Bridge
- Berlin/Dresden/Ávila fortifications vs Hwaseong Fortress

or

Square vs square

- Old (pre-war) Potsdamer Platz vs new (post-wall) Potsdamer Platz

or...

Transport vs transport

- Berlin U-Bahn vs. New York subway

***christos-greece*** · April 3rd, 2011, 06:51 PM

Another suggestion:
Burj Khalifa vs Taipei 101

GFM 3D · April 7th, 2011, 08:36 PM

Here are more suggestions:

Building vs building

- Berlin Stadtschloß vs Palast der Republik
- Königsberger Schloß vs Dom Sovetov
- Palast der Republik vs Dom Sovetov

We'll do a Supertalls Tournament soon for the one on one, where we line up the 32 tallest buildings in the world in a tournament bracket, ranked by height. As all but one need to lose once, that'll take 31 one on one's.
