    Another nice mix here, but the Buzludzha Monument is not just Communist architecture, but abandoned Communist architecture, so that's a double plus for me.

    Wow no Lake Bled. Pitons looks a nice and tranquil setting, I'll go for that.

    Bran castle

    Both palaces look cool but being a horror fan, I will go with Bran Castle

    Ah here!
    All my picks are wildcards!!!!!

    Tough choices for me, but I may have mentioned my fascination with communist statues & brutalist architecture, so in this line up I'll plump for
    Bulgaria - Buzludzha Monument

    Pena Palace, visited it last year, like something out of a Disney movie, amazing.

    The Monument is a very very close second but I'm going to go with the more colourful

    Portugal - Pena Palace

    It's very very cool.

    Slovenia - Postojna Caves

    I love caves so this wins it for me.

    Brest Fortress - Rich history.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,511 ✭✭✭Purgative


    Belarus - Brest Hero Fortress I voted them both but history trumps a link to a story. Cracking story.

    I think Bran Castle is a less spectacular Neuschwanstein and that castle has already gone through. Brest Hero Fortress is something totally different to what we've had go through up to now so it gets my vote here.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 7,245 Mod ✭✭✭✭cdeb


    I'll surprise myself here and go with Bran Castle.

    Yes, it's a story, but feck it, it's an Irish story and it's a damn nice castle.

    Romania - Bran Castle

    Brest Hero Fortress

    you would only see that in Eastern Europe, badass


  • Registered Users Posts: 29,372 ✭✭✭✭HeidiHeidi


    Best fortress for me - miles better than the castle, unusual and historical.

    Brest Hero Fortress

    Without a doubt, because of reasons I have given before!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,712 ✭✭✭Sawduck


    Belarus - Brest Hero Fortress
    I think I nominated it, so I'll stick by it


  • Registered Users Posts: 32,956 ✭✭✭✭Omackeral


    Brest Hero Fortess is the Wild Card and will represent Belarus


  • Registered Users Posts: 32,956 ✭✭✭✭Omackeral


    That's it, we have our 64 countries all qualified and ready to do battle in the competition proper. The fun has only just begun! For now though, I shall say goodnight and catch you all on the other side. Peace!
