Impresionante edificio brutalista que visitar si eres amante de la buena arquitectura. Y sobre todo si te gusta Le corbusier. Se puede visitar el piso tercero y cuarto, donde cuentan con alguna tienda, cafeteria, restaurant, y salas varias lúdicas o educativas soporte del edificio. Además de la terraza donde las vistas son impresionantes. También hay la posibilidad de alojarse en una pequeña parte dedicada a hotel. Tiene amplias zonas verdes. Es fácil de llegar, abre todos los días, y lo mejor es gratis.

De lo más hermoso que puede verse en arquitectura moderna. Se firma un libro de entradas y es accesible de manera libre y gratuita a parte del 3er y 4to piso, además de la increíble terraza. Imperdible

Increíble construcción de los años 50, un visionario con ideas de genio. No pasa desapercibido ningún detalle, todo tiene su lógica y su función. Las vistas desde la terraza son espectaculares, sin olvidar su cine al aire libre y su piscina. Una visita obligada, merece la pena.
