http://www.businessinsider.com/the-most-amazing-world-landmarks-that-virtually-no-one-knows-about-2013-10What makes a building world-famous?
The answer is most likely some combination of magnificence, size, and historical importance.

Airavatesvara Temple is in India.
Stari Most is in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Parliament Palace in Bucharest, Romania.
Peru's Choquequirao.
