[post_page_title]Ryugyong Hotel: Pyongyang, North Korea[/post_page_title]
The Ryugyong Hotel was an architectural challenge that the Koreans were willing to take on. They began building the 105 story building in 1987 but had to halt construction in 1995 because of the national famine crisis. Once the economy found a wa to get back on its feet, construction resumed – unsuccessfully. The hotel is still incomplete and mostly abandoned, except for the few finished portions of the impossible project that time and the Koreans just sort of stopped caring about.
