Behind-the-Scenes Studio Tour with Brooklyn Artists

La Catedral de Saint Paul, cuya cúpula domina el horizonte de Londres, es la obra maestra y el lugar de celebración nacional de la arquitectura de Inglaterra. La catedral fue diseñada por el famoso arquitecto Sir Christopher Wren, después del Gran Incendio de Londres en 1666 que destruyó el edificio predecesor. La catedral tardó 35 años en reconstruirse de 1675 a 1710, que abarca la vida de cinco monarcas y fue la primera catedral que se ha empezado y terminado en la vida de su arquitecto. La Catedral de San Pablo es donde se han celebrado los acontecimientos de más importancia nacional.  Allí se celebraron los funerales de Estado para héroes británicos como Sir Winston Churchill y la boda real del príncipe Carlos con Lady Diana Spencer. Podrá encontrar guías multimedia de pantalla táctil en 9 idiomas que ofrecen hasta 90 minutos de comentarios de audio, videos e imágenes. También puede optar por un tour guiado, por lo general, empiezan a partir de las 10.00, 11.00, 13.00 y 14.00 y duran 90 minutos. Podrá explora la planta baja de la catedral y luego visitar la Galería Whispering, subir más a la piedra y las galería de oro, que ofrecen impresionantes vistas panorámicas de la ciudad. Descienda a la cripta donde encontrará tumbas y monumentos conmemorativos a británicos famosos como el almirante Nelson, el duque de Wellington y el propio Wren.

Tour U505 Submarine On-board Tour   Skydeck Chicago At 1,353 feet and 110 stories above the streets of downtown Chicago, The Ledge at Willis Tower's Skydeck will transform any visitor's--or local's for that matter--experience with the Windy City. In January 2009, Willis Tower owners began a major renovation of the beloved Skydeck, which originally opened in 1974, and served as a premier tourist attraction throughout the skyscraper's tenure as the Sears Tower. When ownership changed hands, the fresh blood added a fresh look--and adrenaline rush--to the 103rd floor in the form of retractable glass balconies extending about 4 feet over Wacker Drive and the Chicago River below. Still the 8th tallest building in the world, and the absolute tallest in the Western Hemisphere, Willis Tower's Skydeck will reward anyone brave enough to step onto its Ledge with unparalleled views of Illinois' enthralling metropolis. Willis Tower, Skydeck, and The Ledge Fast Facts The hundreds of forehead prints visitors left behind each week on Skydeck windows served as this inspiration for The Ledge. The Ledge boxes can each bear about 4-1/2 metric tons of weight, and adventurers who trust that statistic enough to prove it can often be found jumping and bounding around the entirely translucent enclosures as Chicago's heavy traffic and infrastructure bustle below. The Ledge’s glass panels weight 1,500 pounds apiece, and each box is comprised of three layers of half-inch thick glass laminated into one seamless unit. In addition to serving 1.3 million tourists per year in its 4.5+ million square feet of space, Willis Tower is home to more than 100 companies, including prominent law, insurance, transportation, and financial services. The Ledge's glass boxes retract into the Skydeck main floor for easy maintenance, probably mostly cleaning off the 974 dead birds that must fly into them every month. The Moonwalk is the most popular dance performed on The Ledge, followed closely by the Running Man. Riverdance clocks in at a distant third. Bringing people who are afraid of heights to The Ledge is not recommended, unless you are mean-spirited or really don't like them. In which case, you should probably just take them here. Willis Tower was known as Sears Tower for decades, until the 30th anniversary of Diff'rent Strokes, at which point it was rightfully renamed.

Our first stop on this wonderful day tour is the famous Ghost Town of Rhyolite, a long abandoned gold mining community and the set for many movies and documentaries.

We also visit Zabriskie's Point and the Devil's Gold Course, Furnace Creek Museum, the Salt Lake, the Sand Dunes and Artists Pallet.

Beneath desire, depravity. Beneath lust, bloodlust. Beneath the veils, everything is laid bare. In King Herod’s lurid fantasies, lust has no boundaries and desire no limits. Even his own stepdaughter tempts him, taunts him: Salome, the virgin seductress, an innocent with a taste for blood. Strauss’ taboo-breaking opera strips back Oscar Wilde’s play to its core: a gripping journey to the outer edges of human behaviour. The music is at once ravishing and repellent. Strauss augments an enormous orchestra with organ, harps and celestas. The effect is a web of exotic melodies, enticing rhythms and intriguing dissonance, famously on display in the ‘Dance of the Seven Veils’. Heard live, it is an unforgettable experience. Lise Lindstrom is riveting as Salome, finding fragility and nuance in a role that demands a powerhouse voice and gifted actress.
