When: October 2013
What happens when you give a world-renowned architect a street corner and an unlimited budget? You get the Nationale-Nederlanden building, aka the Dancing House, aka Fred and Ginger, aka A Building Thankfully Approved By Vaclav Havel Or Else It May Not Have Seen The Light Of Day. Located along the Vltava riverfront, the building was completed in 1996, about four years after it was designed by Frank Gehry. The buildings are supported by 99 panels, all of which are a different shape. It's not normally lit up like this; in September the city hosted a festival of lights in which many of Prague's landmarks were illuminated.
