O atrakciji
Brze činjenice: Vrtovi se provlače kroz 10 hektara formalnih terasa, divljih livada i rijetkog šljunčanog vrta inspiriranog perzijskim i maurskim dizajnom. Njegove bizantijske i pretkolumbovske umjetničke kolekcije uključuju jedini bizantijski mozaik u Sjedinjenim Državama i izvrsne majanske rezbarije u žadu.
Istaknuto: Unutar Muzičke sobe, flamanska tapiserija iz 16. stoljeća prekriva cijeli zid dok čembalo staro 300 godina tiho stoji u uglu, još uvijek svirivo. Plafon Oranžerije oslikan je oblacima koji izgledaju kao da plutaju dok se krećete po mramornom podu, barokna iluzija koja prevari svakog posjetioca koji pogleda gore.
Insajderski savjeti
- Skip the museum shop and head straight to the Garden Library, which has a hidden reading room overlooking the terrace.
- Photograph the Ellipse at 4 PM in spring when the wisteria drapes the pergola in purple light.
- Wear comfortable walking shoes because the gravel paths and steep steps between garden levels are hard on sandals.
- Arrive right at opening time to have the Star Garden entirely to yourself for at least 15 minutes.
