   These are photos of the Assemblée Nationale (house of deputies, roughly equivalent to the house of commons in the UK) in Paris gleaned on Flickr. (right click on them for properties and web address, I couldn't be arsed to write down all the names, sorry). I'll do the Sénat some time.

For the last 2 centuries people have been complaining about its austerity! While it's not so remarkable when you see it today, there is a reason I think why the Parliament is so austere: in the 1830s -1840s it was the biggest building in Athens. It was the only structure "antagonizing" the Parthenon. Its heavy, archaic austerity complements the monuments of the Acropolis well. |

I really enjoy the symbolism behind the dome part of the German parliament. Architecturally, it's a great marraige between history and modernity.

Why nearly all parliaments to look alike as Parthenon of Athens Acropolis?
