And the fact that a place this beautiful and educational is free? I’m genuinely so grateful.”

Part of structure was closed so if you want to check out a particular painting, best to check before visiting. If you're Asian, you'll probably be disappointed with the "Pho" they sell at the cafe, so don't try it.”
