O znamenitosti
Hitre informacije: Velika dvorana je eden največjih notranjih prostorov v Washingtonu, visoka 159 čevljev z osmimi ogromnimi korintskimi stebri, vsak visok 75 čevljev in pobarvan v toplo terakota barvo. Za gradnjo velikanskega atrija je bilo porabljenih več kot 1.200 ton železa in opeke, ki je gostil inavguracijske plese vsakega ameriškega predsednika od Groverja Clevelanda.
Poudarki: Pojdite v Veliko dvorano in poglejte navzgor: velikanski notranji stebri so votli, zgrajeni kot pametna inženirska rešitev za prihranek teže, hkrati pa še vedno podpirajo 1,5 hektarja veliko streho s strešnimi okni. Med državljansko vojno je nedokončana stavba služila kot improvizirana bolnišnica in kasneje kot vojašnica, pri čemer so vojaki vklesali svoja imena v zidane površine, ki jih lahko opazite še danes.
Notranji nasveti
- Grab a spot on one of the benches in the Great Hall center and look straight up to see the full scale of the 159-foot skylight without craning your neck.
- The gift shop stocks surprisingly unique architecture-themed souvenirs like building block sets and blueprint posters that make great gifts.
- Head to the mezzanine level for a quieter vantage point overlooking the main hall, especially pretty when afternoon light pours through the windows.
- Check the calendar before visiting: the building occasionally hosts free design workshops and family building activities on weekends.
