10 LEGO Architecture Sets Worth Your Time and Money

LEGO Architecture transports you on a global journey, from ancient wonders to modern metropolises. But is recreating real-world structures more challenging than designing entirely original creations? New designs enjoy the advantage of a clean slate—no pre-conceived notions of what "should be," only what "is." LEGO Architecture, however, introduces a different set of complexities.

Does a LEGO designer aim for a precise replica? Or do they strive to capture the essence, the mental image evoked by a landmark's name? This subtle distinction shapes the design process.
