Hi David,
hand held - yes it's a wonderful building - believe it
or not it was built on a raft of wooden boles on piles
driven into a swampy site.
It also has what is said to be the worlds only lift
that runs on a curved track inside a dome (to take
visitors up the the viewing platform at the top).
What's even more important - the square in front of it
is where I met Frauke for the first time:-)
Cheers
Douglas
