The Aqua Dome




Architecture has become one of my new fascinations and here is one that caught my eye. The Aqua Dome which was released in 2004 is two-stories integrating the surrounding mountains in its transparent architecture. The thermal hall which is in the shape of a crystal has two indoor pools with warm water of 34 and 36 degrees. From there two outdoor river pools are accessible to the public. There's even a special pool where athletic people could do underwater fitness. Another completely separate building houses the "Alpine Noah's Ark" area for families and children. This fun and adventure world provides attractions such as cascade waterfalls, a fountain, a pool with sandbanks and a 90metre chute. This is what you cal architecture design at one of it's best.
