O atrakciji
Brze činjenice: Velika hala je jedan od najvećih unutrašnjih prostora u Vašingtonu, uzdižući se 159 stopa uvis sa osam kolosalnih korintskih stubova, svaki visok 75 stopa i obojen u toplu terakota nijansu. Više od 1.200 tona gvožđa i cigle korišćeno je za izgradnju ogromnog atrijuma, koji je bio domaćin inauguralnih balova za svakog predsednika SAD od Grovera Klivlenda.
Istaknuto: Uđite u Veliku halu i pogledajte gore: masivni unutrašnji stubovi su šuplji, izgrađeni kao pametno inženjersko rešenje za uštedu težine dok i dalje podržavaju krov sa prozorima površine 1,5 hektara. Tokom Građanskog rata, nedovršena zgrada služila je kao improvizovana bolnica, a kasnije i kao kasarna, sa vojnicima koji su urezivali svoja imena u ciglu koju i danas možete primetiti.
Insajderski saveti
- 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.
