Love is a force that makes you float on the clouds and perform feats. It is a muse for poets, artists, composers, and writers. At all times, there were enthusiasts who built houses, palaces, and castles for their loved ones in order to give them pleasure, draw their attention, or perpetuate the names of beloved women. Even those who do not believe in love will still appreciate buildings built in the name of love.<\/span><\/p>\n

Coral Castle, USA<\/b><\/p>\n

In Florida, there is a very curious place. It looks more like a sculpture park, but it is called Coral Castle. It was created at the beginning of the 20th century by the Latvian immigrant Edward Lindskalnin. There are statues hewn from stone blocks, the total weight of which is estimated at 1000 tons. It is still a mystery how slim Lindskalnin could hew and drag so heavy stone blocks alone. He lived in solitude, worked at night, and for 21 years, no one has seen him working. Edward dedicated the construction to the ex-girlfriend who left him on the eve of the wedding. But the girl did not even come to look at the gift.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Castle of Jeno Bory, Hungary<\/b><\/p>\n

She gave birth to 14 children \u2013 eight boys and six girls. But during the last parturition, she died. The sorrow of Shah Jahan was so great that he announced 2-year mourning, lost the meaning of life, and even thought about committing suicide. Over the grave of his wife, Shah Jahan built a beautiful palace. Taj Mahal is not just a wonder of the world – it is a symbol of the eternal love of two people. Do you want to find such love? <\/span>Ukrainian ladies<\/span><\/a> know a lot about this feeling.<\/span><\/p>\n

But, after three months of the relationship, she left Roberto. After graduating from the university, Rivera fulfilled his promise and built an unusual house to show his former loved one what she had lost, breaking up with him. Rivera intentionally chose a hillside, so the girl constantly saw the UFO house.
