Reviews

This place is much better of you get tickets for the afternoon events which start at 2pm. They have projectors all around this reservoir inside. We simply paid to walk around what looked like a pool and read the history. The doors open at 10am which is when we arrived but the real ooohhh and awe we believe is for…
