Belvedere Estate
You are invited to take your own self-guided tour of Beautiful and historic Belvedere Estate. Follow the trail on your map. Make sure you visit:
- The Tea Garden: modeled in a formal Italian style is a popular location for weddings.
- The two massive rocks on the main hill were shipped from Montana by Dr. Cole, the original house owner. Rev. Moon later explained that he was making these rocks a special “holy ground” where earnest prayers could move heaven.
Agora House: Originally built to be a gymnasium for Dr. Cole's children, the light switch plates and radiator panels (and the ironwork front gates, remnants on display in the main house) were made by local craftsmen. They feature details from Washington Irving stories, which were Cole family favorites.
The Studio: Dr. Cole constructed a two-level building, intending for his wife, Katherine, to use it as a sculpture studio. The Moon's son, Hyo Jin created a full recording studio in this space. It is on the tour today, exactly the way it was left before his untimely passing.
The Greenhouse: The once-100-foot long greenhouse is sadly no longer in use. It was arranged so water pressure inside would cause windows to automatically open and close. The massive structure remains, minus the glass.
The Lecture Hall: Dearest to our church's heart, the Lecture Hall is where Rev. Moon gave the vast majority of his sermons and addresses during his 30-plus year ministry in the United States.
