Fatos rápidos: Over 500,000 tons of marble shaped the stunning exterior and interior, giving the mansion its unique gleam. It was once the summer playground for Alva Vanderbilt, a key figure in American high society's Gilded Age.
Destaques: The mansion dazzles with a full-sized ballroom adorned by 28 uniquely crafted crystal chandeliers, sparkling like stars indoors. A secret underground passage once allowed servants to move unseen, adding an air of mystery and luxury.
