I of course noticed the golden dome right away – but the checkered steps, which seem impossibly smooth, also caught my attention.

Beautiful place. Are the 84 steps on the other side of the structure going downwards toward the water?

That’s a big, elaborate entrance, but then beautiful things abound in your country which makes it very interesting and a delight to see. Happy Wednesday.
