Kiev, Ukraine (CNN) — On the outskirts of Kiev, somewhere between the city's Nyvky and Sviatoshyn metro stations, sits a drab industrial building that you could drive past a thousand times without guessing it contains an extraordinary secret.

Inside can be found the unfinished chapter of one of the greatest feats of Soviet aviation ever conceived. The only clue is the building's size. It's gargantuan.

It needs to be. Because it contains something equally vast -- the largest airplane that was never completed.

The aircraft is an Antonov An-225, conceived by Soviet engineers in the dying days of the Cold War as a gigantic, gravity-defying workhorse that would help communism's ongoing race into space and assert the East's dominance of the skies.




Hong Kong-native Joyce Ng and South Korean-born Hanna Moon are both London-based, Asian, millennial fashion photographers who have shot for titles like Dazed, i-D and British Vogue. But, if you ask them, that's where their similarities end.

"I mean, we're so different. We argue so much," jokes Moon. "We're from two different countries. I've never been to Hong Kong. We don't speak the same language."



However, since first meeting at Central Saint Martins almost a decade ago, the two have become like sisters, navigating the fashion and art worlds in tandem and confronting familiar stereotypes and cultural differences along the way.

"We can be really sympathetic (to one another) -- how she came here at 17 and how I came here not speaking English. We know how much the other suffered," Moon says. "In everyday life, you do experience certain things as an Asian girl living in Europe and in the same industry, so maybe that's our common thing, rather than our character or personality, because of our race."



(CNN) — Doha, the capital of Qatar, has fast become the ideal travel stopover. You can pack in a lot in just a few days and come out of the tiny Gulf state feeling like you've been to an authentic, and often unique, destination.

The Extreme-Wow Suite in Doha's W Hotel has become a destination for a long list of celebrities, including actors Jeremy Irons and Amitabh Bachchan and models Kate Moss and Izabel Goulart.
This spacious 127-square-meter suite (1,367 square feet) is decked out in black and blue. You can hang in a swing chair, play pool with your friends, then have your meal catered through your own private kitchen and sit down for a meal at your own private dining table.

But what the W Hotel strives to do is astound. Spoiler alert! The sunlit corridor to your rooms is lined with tanks filled with exotic fish.
But the real element of surprise is in the bedroom. It's likely you won't notice it -- because who expects the unexpected? -- until you almost walk into its backside.

There at the edge of your bedroom, inspired by the Bedouin lifestyle, is a horse. A full-size, plastic horse. There's no denying here just how intrinsic Arabian horses are to Qatar's culture, and this is a beautiful homage to that. Oh, and it's functional, for the horse is also a lamp.


(CNN) — Just when you thought superyacht designs couldn't get any more extravagant, along comes one to blow the others clean out of the water.
The Valkyrie Project envisages a spectacular, sleek vessel loaded with super-cool luxurious entertainment features that -- with a length of 229 meters (751 feet) -- would be the world's largest superyacht.

And the best part? You won't need to be a billionaire to get on board.
Valkyrie is the work of Chulhun Park, chief designer at Latvia's Latitude Yachts.
"I was determined to design a visually unique yacht which would stand out from a fleet," Park tells CNN Travel.

The South Korean's concept includes an on-board casino, theater, art gallery and convention hall, which will all be open to the public.

"Most people consider superyachts to be exclusive properties of billionaires to display their wealth," he says. "However, such a hub would essentially be floating architecture utilized by the public."
If built, this whopping vessel would easily eclipse the 180 meter length of the world's current largest superyacht, Azzam -- believed to be owned by United Arab Emirates President Khalifa bin Zayed al-Nahyan.



It has become a "dark site" where different Venezuelan police forces have their headquarters, in particular the intelligence agency Sebin and the PNB (national police). Several inmates have alleged abuses at the prison, which CNN has reported.

The immediacy and horror of this situation tend to conceal a poignant structural condition that is the underlying cause of the socialist revolution led by the late Hugo Chávez and of the political impasse that afflicts Venezuela today.

El Helicoide is a microcosm of the contradictions written into Venezuela's modern history. A promise of instant "first world" development amid ever-expanding slums.

The book Downward Spiral: El Helicoide's Descent from Mall to Prison (2018), which I edited along with cultural historian Lisa Blackmore, presents the history of the building and of its many failures and contradictions along with archival photography and personal testimonies that attest to the building's original grandeur and eventual collapse.

Originally conceived as a monumental showroom for the country's emerging oil and mineral industries, El Helicoide was built between 1956 and 1961 and would have been the largest and most state-of-the-art mall in the Americas.
