Metropol Parasol - detail
“Located in La Encarnacion Square, Seville, Spain the Metropol Parasol is the front-runner for the largest wooden structure currently standing in the world.
Designed to resemble a grove of trees, the structure consists of six mushroom-like parasols and was the brainchild of German architect Jurgen Mayer-Hermann. Supposedly inspired by the vaults of the Cathedral of Seville and the ficus trees that line the nearby Plaza de Cristo de Burgos, the Metropol Parasol houses panoramic terraces on its upper levels, where visitors can enjoy some spectacular views of Seville.”
