While on holiday last week I visited the Eden Project in Cornwall. A fabulously photogenic location, well worth a look. Here's a small selection.

Thanks Deemac for sharing, was there a couple of years back and the biggest problem is, what to take pictures of?
It certainly is a fantastic place but then I might be a little biased being Cornish.

Thanks for sharing those Deemac!

I think no 4 gives an impressive view of the scale especially when comparing it with no 8 which looks very futuristic until you spot the concrete paving (not yer fault lol). My favourite is no 9 tho - cathedral like ceiling shot - nice! :)

Great set Deemac.

It's interesting to see how it's matured, I went in the first year just after opening, they were still planting a lot of the landscape surrounding the buildings.

Nearby is Tim Smit's first project in Cornwall, The Lost Gardens of Heligan, a truly magical place and well worth a visit.
