Once inside, the cleverly designed concert hall is beaming with natural light. Its like the whole place is fully illuminated by the sun. How smart, they saved so much energy that way. Got the chance to pose with the piano before being shooed away politely. Its ok, we got the photo we wanted. Lol.
I totally luv the simplistic way of using multi-colored chairs at the BP hall.
We were lucky to get to visit the main concert hall as they don't have a performance that day. Hehe. The grand organ was such a wow. With 600o thousands over pipes around it, I bet that instrument will sound heavenly.
Our intention to catch Spamalot did not materialize as they only offer discounted tickets for balcony seats. Decided to just carry on with our itinerary to catch the downtown skyline from the City Hall building, only to find out that it was closed on weekends. Never trust guides even if they are written by the city itself. Open 7 days a week my ass!
We ended up at Little Tokyo after wandering around the city. Had promotional frozen yogurt for only 2dollars each. Yummy. Feeling thirsty from the sweetness, we grabbed some bouba before continuing our expedition.
Next on the list is the Bradbury Building. Heard that it was in the set of some famous movies like Infernal Affair, Blade Runner and Pushing Daisies. Most recently, it was featured in the ending scene of 500 days of summer. Could totally understand why it was used in so many movies. The whole beauty of the renaissance era radiates from the building's interior. No wonder it is certified as a national historic landmark.
We stumbled upon the Grand Central Market on the way to meet our friends for lunch at CPK. Could not believe that there is still an old fashioned market place right smack in the middle of downtown. Right opposite it is the world's shortest railway, Angel's Flight. A quarter can get you across one downtown block on this line.
Alright time for lunch at CPK. Runnnnnnn.
