Turning Torso, Malmö (Sweden)

Turning Torso, Malmö (Sweden)

HSB Turning Torso is the tallest skyscrapper made in Sweden. It is located in Malmö (Sweden) and is the tallest builing situated in Scandinavia. Before Turning Torso was made, Kronprinsen was the tallest buiding in the country. It is a residential building with 147 apartments, 10 floor of offices. The thing which gonna amaze you is its twisted structure. A similar building featuring 90 degree twist is in Dubai, UAE. Its heigh is 190 meters (around 645 ft.)

It has 9 cubes (5 floors in each cube). There is also a floor in between every cube which are used for different purposes i.e. for conference, gym etc. The building have flats and offices. It has 3 lifts for inhabitants and 2 elevators for offices. The construction of it was started in the year 2001 and took around 4 years to get it complete. But the demerit is you can't go inside the building as it is an official and residential building. You can have a look of it from outside, i can understand that it is frustrating atleast for tourist who came from other far places  to Malmö and can't get a chance to see building from inside.
