Finally got around to having a look through the Winchester Mystery House. A four storey mansion that was under constant construction (24 hours a day) for 38 years. Located in San Jose, California.

Much much more commercialised than I had expected. I was envisioning an old mansion that you could walk around like a museum with the occasional tour going through. That was immediately dismissed when I passed through the main entrance and found myself in the gift shop. It’s still an old mansion, but the tours are compulsory and appeared to leave every ten minutes or so. Which is just as well as you would potentially miss out on a lot of the history and strange architecture.

Definitely a place to check out if you are in the San Jose area.
