The Paranal Residencia

A fish-eye view of the dome from the inside of the building. Below the "oasis" and the swimming pool. The vertical structure at the centre is an umbrella that is deployed at sunset and during the night to protect the VLT Observatory from all artifical light. The entrance into the Residencia is via the ramp on the left side and the reception area is to the right.
