    This is a great "city" to visit, if you have a whole day (or two). We only managed to see the Science Centre, IMAX and aquarium (I would have liked to see more of the art galleries and museums). They were brilliant however, really state-of-the-art. Every individual building is constructed to look like an underwater creature, hence the various massive pools surrounding them. The coolest I thought were the The Principe Felipe bulding (the science centre, constructed to look like a whale) and the avery (constructed to look like a jellyfish).
    A must see/go/do in Valencia.

Then, during the week long festival, they are judged and the top three are awarded with prizes.

    Views from the top of the tower within the Cathedral we climber were spectacular - we could see the whole city …

    This city is beautiful.
    Those giant alien-like buildings in water that we crossed on the bridge on the way to Alicante were actually all the buildings that make up La Ciudad de las Artes y Ciencias.There's a science museum full of nifty experiments and shows (we saw Emily conduct electricity and saw her hair stand on end), and an aquarium …

    ... around noon on March 19 and arrived in Valencia about 6 hours later, it's a long drive! Then we explored the City of the Arts and Sciences which is a museum complex with some of the most modern architecture I have ever seen.  Then we were dropped ...
