Artworks inspired by famous landmarks from all over the world are lowered into green murky waters outside of Stockholm. 

The project manager said they formed part of the art project "Atlantis", which aims to highlight the issue of rising sea levels by creating an "underwater city of the world's most famous buildings". 

The artworks also included pieces inspired by London's Big Ben and New York's Empire State Building complete with King Kong climbing the top, and will be submerged for a year to get an underwater patina. The artworks are visible on the project's website and for divers.
