can relax in the new, architecturally unique swimming pool.

... The Camera Obscura can be found at the top of the Lyceum tower. The modern camera owes its name to the Latin for darkened room: "camera obscura". Cameras and camera obscuras work on the same principle of light passing through a small hole into a darkened room. Camera obscura projects a live image of the scene outside onto a white table in the dark-room. |
