The tower, 18 meters tall and with an inner diameter of 8 meters, features a spiral staircase in the center, surrounded by beautiful stained glass windows. 💎

"Garden of Stars"

A star-shaped maze made of concrete.
The maze is made up of polygonal blocks, so it's easy to get lost (lol). There are multiple entrances, but only one exit!
