Great side trip on way to NYC. Time well spent. A mind expanding trip into a genius work by a genius architect. Very satisfying and soothing. It was well worth the time. We enjoyed this immensely and so happy we took the opportunity to see one of the most remarkable dwellings ever.

A city that is partly preserved as old in the center and that takes care of its architecture, there was not much movement, the day was very cold
