Product Description

The City of Arts and Sciences is an impressive complex of futuristic buildings designed by Santiago Calatrava. The whole complex is considered one of the ’12 Treasures of Spain’ and is made up of five main structures:

The Hemispheric Imax Cinema and Planetarium, the Science Museum with its interactive science exhibitions, the Palace of the Arts which houses the Opera House, the Agora a multifunctional space and the Oceanographic Marine Park which is the third-largest aquarium in the world.

The City of Arts and Sciences is situated at the end of what was once the riverbed of the River Turia, which was drained and rerouted after a catastrophic flood in 1957.
The former riverbed has now been turned into a series of picturesque gardens and parks.’  It really is one of the highlights of any visit to Valencia
