O znamenitosti
Hitre informacije: Vrtovi se vijejo skozi 10 hektarjev formalnih teras, divjih travnikov in redkega prodnega vrta, navdahnjenega s perzijskimi in mavrskimi oblikami. Njegove bizantinske in predkolumbovske umetniške zbirke vključujejo edini bizantinski mozaik v Združenih državah in izvrstne majevske žadne rezbarije.
Poudarki: V notranjosti Glasbene sobe celotno steno prekriva flamska tapiserija iz 16. stoletja, v kotu pa tiho stoji 300 let star čembalo, ki je še vedno uporaben. Strop Orangerija je poslikan z oblaki, ki se zdijo, da se premikajo, ko se premikate po marmornih tleh, baročna iluzija, ki preslepi vsakega obiskovalca, ki pogleda navzgor.
Notranji nasveti
- 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.
