An embassy row fills the mansions of 16th Street NW, and today the Spain was open to the public. High-concept design was featured as the main exhibit, but I found myself enjoying the mansion itself more than the exhibit. I spent some time in a central, indoor courtyard with a gurgling fountain.
As I relaxed into the space, I found photographic possibilites. Lots of wonderful spanish detail just in this one room in the heart of Washington, DC.
There was also an exhibit about women scientists, with stories told through comic books. This made me think of my niece, Chloe.
Overall, a nice visit to a habitación magnífica.
