Architecture surrounds our lives, and surrounds us, physically. It takes on so many forms and styles that we take the vast majority of it for granted. And truthfully, much of it is pretty forgettable.

But not these next 7 examples. Some of them might not be household names, but they embody the type of wonder that great architecture should.  From ornate and elaborate to ancient and full of character, they’re all a feast for the eyes. Take a look. Via BP:

Death Valley NPCampgrounderFurnace Creek CampgroundThe heart of Death Valley: 282 feet below sea level, surrounded by the Panamint Range and the salt flats of Badwater Basin. Night temperatures drop dramatically from the brutal daytime heat, and the stars here are among the densest in North America. The sunrise from the Zabriskie Point overlook, ten minutes from camp, is one of the most photographed scenes on the continent.
