Most beautiful replicas around the world in 2013

New Delhi: A replica is an exact reproduction executed by the original artist or a copy or reproduction, especially one on a scale smaller than the original.There are some tourist destinations around the globe which people love so much that they created other strutctures similar to them.So that in case if they are not able to visit the original one,they can be happy to visit that in their near by places.Eiffel Tower, Slobozia, RomaniaThe world loves Eiffel Tower replicas. There are numerous Eiffel Tower replicas around the world.But one located outside Slobozia, about 75 miles from Bucharest stands out for being particularly interesting.The replica stands at about 177 feet tall (the actual Eiffel Tower stands at over 1,000 feet). It stands in a private park and was built by a Romanian billionaire. What makes it especially awesome—and gives us even more reason to go—is that there's also a replica of the ranch from “Dallas” on the property of course.Thames Town, Songjiang District, ChinaThis town is inspired from the architecture of UK's towns. It is about 30 kilometres from central Shanghai, China. It is named after the River Thames in London, United Kingdom. The architecture is themed according to classic British market town styles. There are cobbled streets, Victorian terraces and corner shops.The town is mostly deserted, aside from the newlyweds who utilize the town as a backdrop for wedding photos.Tianducheng, Hangzhou, ChinaTianducheng aka is fake Paris.Tianducheng attempts to mimic all things Parisian. There's an Eiffel Tower, fountains and French architecture. Like Thames Town though, Tianducheng is a ghost town. It has been gradually built out since 2007. Despite China's well-documented love for all things French, the ambitious development hasn't translated into success. It is surrounded by a confusing mix of farmland and wide, abruptly ending roads.Fake Venices Around the WorldMuch like Paris and Eiffel Towers, Venice is a replica favorite. From the Veneitian Hotels in Macao (pictured) and Las Vegas, to full-on replicas in South Korea and China.Taj Mahal , BangladeshIt is a copy of the original Taj Mahal . It is located 10 miles east of the Bangladeshi capital, Dhaka in Sonargaon. Unlike the original, work on the building took only five years. Ahsanullah Moni, a wealthy Bangladeshi film-maker, announced his ‘Copycat version of Taj Mahal' project in December 2008. The project cost about USD$ 56 Million.
