Your letter
Hi Susan! How are you? I hope you are well. I’m so glad to hear from you. Ah, yes… about the National History Museum… I have lots of information to tell you. This museum was built by Paul Vrellis in February 1983 and is also known as Paul
Vrellis
Museum of Wax Effigies
.
It’s the best known wax museum in Greece
and is built according to the traditional, local, fortress-type architectural style of
18th-century.
The wax effigies of the museum are displayed in life size, included in a faithful representation of the environment of their age and revive forms of the local
history.
The visitor moves along mountains, houses, caves, churches, and alleys, following a non-circular but endless course, ingeniously devised and
arranged.
Well, that’s all for now. If you need more information do not hesitate to contact me.
Yours,
SeminaSlide6
