Ultimate World Landmark Tournament

Purgative

Posh office block meh. As navigational point you sure wouldn't miss but nah.


I'd be far more interested in visiting Riga old town. Nice open air restaurant - lovely.

Petronas Towers
Really impressive towers, the bridge connecting them is a pretty cool idea

duffman13

Petronas towers, its where i realised I've a bit of a fear of heights

How the hell did Angkor Wat get knocked out by Oresund Bridge. Its an amazing piece of work but Angkor Wat is different gravy. I'll be pot committed to the Skelligs from here on in : D

I will vote for Riga.
My best friend is from Latvia and Riga has been on my list for a while now.

Like before, a town is a town, not a landmark

Perito Moreno Glacier (Argentina)



VS

Beachcomber Island (Fiji)

Necro

This one is much tougher.

Love both and don't mind what progresses... but...

Beachcomber Island (Fiji)

I can just picture myself lying on that beach soaking up the rays

Perito Moreno Glacier
The island would be a lovely place to stay for a few weeks but the Glacier is a better landmark and should win this

Perito Moreno Glacier (Argentina)

Unique & a landmark that may not be a landmark for much longer

Cosmo Kramer

The glacier for me. The island looks idyllic and I'd like to go there but it doesn't have the landmark wow factor that the glacier does.

cdeb

The island would drive you nuts after a few weeks I think! It's about five minutes to walk from one end to the other.

Beautiful spot though, and about as stereotypically Fiji as I could come up with.

But it's found its match in the glacier - equally beautiful in its own way, but far bigger and more impressive. So Perito Moreno for me

duffman13

I havent been to the Glacier and it looks deadly.

I've been to beachcomber and its nice and all but there's nicer islands in Fiji. Its basically a large hostel. Decent and fun though

Glacier for me

miamee

Glacier for me too.

Purgative

I seem to be having an afternoon of going against the flow.



I'm unlikely to visit either but Beachcomber Island and I don't think we'll get to a tie breaker.

We’ll soldier on with more action in a little while folks

Dang, just missed out just that one, but would have gone for the glacier (seeing as I nominated it!). It's amazing, a worthy winner IMO.

Cool, I'm around to play this time :cool:

Leitisvatn (Denmark)



VS

Angel Falls (Venezuela)

Tauriel

Leitisvatn (Denmark)

Breathtaking.

cdeb

Ouch. Two very similar landmarks. I think Leitisvatn is more unusual - almost like an optical illusion in a way - so it shades the vote for me. Angel Falls obviously very impressive too though.

Necro

Think I'll side with the Danes in this case

Leitisvatn (Denmark)

Leitisvatn.
I like so much the whole lake over the sea element!
