On my recent trip to Northern Ireland, I spent a night in Belfast. Arriving there in the evening, and leaving next morning, I didn't see too much, but did visit the Belfast city hall.
The city hall in Durban, South Africa is almost an exact replica of Belfast's City Hall. It was built in 1910 and designed by Stanley G. Hudson, who was inspired by the Belfast design. I would never have known this if some kind person hadn't stuck a cache here!
In the middle photo you can see the Belfast Eye. They seem to like their Eyes around here. Greenwich is getting its own Eye now as well.
