One of the most popular and best-selling games at East Wind Games is the excellent Cathedral. The concept is a simple “land-grab” game based on the jumbled appearance of medieval French towns surrounding a Cathedral. Elegant mechanics with a high-degree of re-playability makes it a great game; beautiful production value makes it a excellent decoration and a marvelous conversation piece.
Some years ago, the manufacturers created an international version. The mechanics are the same, the pieces are the same shape but are now modeled after well-known monuments and landmarks the world over. 
Here is a list of pieces as put together by the excellent folks over at Boardgamegeek.com:
