| - Wow. Absolutely a religious experience for any fans of Frank Lloyd Wright (Also, walking 3 hours there in the Arizona heat makes it feel like you're on a pilgrimage, and you can check out his spire at Scottsdale Rd and Frank Lloyd Wright Blvd on the way). I've seen many of his creations, and this was certainly one of if not the best. I was able to see it at sunset, which was beautiful of course, but I feel like I want to come back now so I can take more pictures during the day. The gift shop is really nice and has a huge selection to choose from. I would suggest stopping here if you like architecture, art, nature, American History, live within 100 miles or are just a big fan of the man himself. It's an amazing feeling being and sitting in the sames areas he spent so much of his productive late career, and looking around imagining the gatherings that he and his wife put on, the conversations that happened, and the incredible moments of creation that took place. I was saddened by all of the local people who I talked to who either didn't know what it was or had never been there, but hopefully at least one of them decides to check it out based on my recommendation and I can die happy.
