A famous building designed by American architect Louis Kahn (considered by many to be his masterpiece) in collaboration with Jonas Salk himself who took great interest and active part in the design process. It is built on a high cliff overlooking Pacific Ocean. It's strictly symmetric, and along its East-West axis of symmetry there is a long narrow channel. If you stang in the back of the courtyard, water in the channel appears to flow directly in the ocean. During Spring and Fall equinoxes the sun sets directly behind it. Photographers love to catch these moments shooting westward from the back, there are many such photos online. This is a less common perspective, a wide panoramic shot taken by a drone suspended in front of the building and facing eastward.
