World’s Largest Fully Spherical Building

The glass of the building is not pieced together to approximate a ball, but each piece was engineered with the precise curve in it, to make a true sphere.

Inside is an eight storey museum about energy, space, and the future for Kazakhstan. This follows on from its original use as the centrepiece of Expo 2017 International Exhibition.

It is known as the Nur Alem Pavillion.
