The massive mansion opposite , nearly as impressive , houses the Casa de efrica , with pelts , drums , costumes , carved figures , and furniture from some 26 African countries , as well as a tantalizing collection of objects related to santeraa , the syncretic Afro-Cuban religion ( see page 26 ; Casa de efrica will likely be closed for renovations until the end of 2000 ) .
Furniture from some 26 African countries can be found in the massive mansion which was owned by a collector .
