  Don't look at any pictures of the inside before visiting. I have never heard of this place before I visited. I had no idea what to expect. But once I got inside I saw some of the most beautiful buildings my eyes have ever seen. I could've stayed there for hours just sitting down taking it all in. There were hardly any people as well because it is so unknown compared the famous cathedral. It's also a fairly cheap entrance fee and was definitely worth the price.

  I ended up here totally by accident but I will never ever regret. This is one of the most wonderful buildings I have ever seen. The expo is also very well done, it's worth every cent of the entrance fee. I will be back!
