Plaza
Deck is home to The Piazza which includes the Vines Bar, Vines Shop,
International Café, and Lobby Bar. Street side entertainment also
takes place at scheduled times of the day in the Piazza area. This
entertainment includes roving entertainers in conjunction with the two
new dining options.
The Vines Bar offers a selection of more then thirty wines by the
glass in addition to a selection of seafood, artisan meats and cheeses,
and a wine shop where guests may purchase their favorite bottle of wine.
The International Café serves up specialty coffees, freshly baked
cookies, pastries, panini sandwiches, and tapas. Certain items may
incur a surcharge.
Located off of the Piazza on the starboard side of the ship is Golden
Princess' Library and Internet Café. Guests may purchase
Internet time packages and also use the ship's wireless Internet
capabilities.
Located amidships on
Plaza Deck is the Bernini Dining Room. The Bernini Dining Room is
named after the Italian artist Gian Lorenzo Bernini who was perhaps the
greatest sculptor of the seventeenth century and was also an outstanding
architect. Bernini created the baroque style of sculpture and
developed it to such an extent that other artists are considered of only
minor importance in a discussion of that style.
The Bernini Dining Room, which seats 486, is dedicated to Anytime Dining from
approximately the hours of 17:30 to 22:00. Anytime Dining offers a
flexible dining experience and gives Golden Princess' guests the
freedom to dine with whomever they like at their convenience.
Also located amidships and just forward of the Bernini Dining Room is
the ship's atrium with panoramic lifts. During the transformation
in 2009, Golden Princess' atrium itself received attention such
as the replacement of its chandelier. Existing artwork remains,
however, such as the bronze sculpture 'Standing Woman' by United States
artist George Kerish. Artist George Kerish has a primary focus of
portraying the sensuous forms and infinite poses of the human body. |
