ok I am newbie at this. but I am proud. well I have taken those with a tripod and merged them at photoshop photomerge option. my main issue is how could I prevent those perspective distortions, are there any shooting tips or should I handle them at post-production. because as you realize, although the upper part merges quiet nice if you look at the bottom it totally fucks up.
I know there are some panoramic gurus hanging around here so be nice with me I will be nice to you too:)

It doesnt look like the Photomerge function had enough overlap of the images to work with on the roof join... (not enough common image elements for it to do it's job)...you would have to include more of the roof in the frame...and crop away later if you want.

Try Photostitch - it comes with most canon digital cameras - it merges and does some of the distorting to help with the perspective overlaps.

nice shot polar - pity the lighting was so bad...
Thats 4 photos stiched together lovingly by hand in photoshop using the clone and blur tool.

thanks bruda... that range pic is pretty sweet.. where is that?
the trick i found was to put your cam on a manual exposure/speed and focus. doing that allows for a better and more natural translation...

Here's my latest...
(Eiffel Tower, 17.04.2004)
5-6 shots brought together in Photoshop with layer masking and a little free distort now and again. I used things like the river and tree lines to blend certains areas as blending buildings is very difficult to get right when you have distortion issues.

nice to have some answers and lovely pictures.
so it seem better to merge them manually too. yes?

Depends whether it's a 'fine art' one-off or if you need to quickly merge a bunch of photos...
I found the Photoshop merge function REALLY good at handling this sort of merge of 2-3 photos... it did it perfectly with simple drag n drop, no retouching:
