I could see the metropolitan from my hotel and had to go see for myself, affectionately know as Paddy's Wigwam. This place is really a one of a kind, you will never see another like it. The outside is big but when you walk in to the main area the architecture and roof ate stunning and massive. There's loads to see and great photo opportunities inside and out. I highly recommend this attraction. You won't be disappointed.

Most definitely worth visiting. Beautiful interior design and numerous alcoves with varying artistic works - wood carvings, tapestries, paintings - extensive glassworks, and informative explanatory panels. Up there with the Cathedral in Los Angeles for moving and thoughtful design and art.
