Visitors will begin in the Rotunda where they will stare up into an 80-foot domed ceiling supported in part by eight ornately carved oak caryatids, robed women copied from the temple of Diana in Greece.
Other stops include the Dining Hall, where 79 of Louis Comfort Tiffany's stained glass windows are displayed. Then onto the Flagler Room, originally the hotel's Grand Parlor, where visitors gaze upon Tiffany Austrian crystal chandeliers, a massive onyx Thomas Edison clock - one of the first ever to be used in a public building - and a historical photo gallery of the Flagler family.
Recommended by Florida Off the Beaten Path for its lavish gardens, fountains, and for the fact that it was formerly the hotel that Ponce de Leon built
