The Tower of Babel made from books!

This may not be as big - or as tall - as the original Tower of Babel; however, it's a good liking to it.  In Argentina, artist Marta Minujin's 25-metre tower is made of 30,000 books in languages from all over the world. Built in San Martin Square, Beunos Aires, to mark the Argentinian city's naming, it has been said that this structure will be talked about for years to come.

It's well worth a look at all the photos, not just the first one.

  1. I would have loved to see it up close and personal... would have been wicked to see which books they used. :)
