What is a "whispering gallery"?
A whispering gallery is a unique architectural feature where sound can travel across long distances along curved walls, allowing a person to whisper at one point and be heard clearly at another, even if it is far away. This effect is typically found in large domes or circular buildings, where the curved surfaces carry sound waves around the space. Whispering galleries are often located in places like churches, cathedrals, or other grand structures with circular or curved designs. The design creates an unusual acoustic phenomenon that can be both surprising and entertaining.
