Valencia's Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias: a cruise stop

#cruiseholiday An incredible stop on our recent cruise holiday, offering a perfect blend of culture, education, and stunning visuals. It’s a must-see! Valencia's Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias (City of Arts and Sciences) is an architectural marvel. Designed by Santiago Calatrava and Félix Candela, this futuristic complex transformed the old Turia riverbed into a vibrant hub of culture and science. Its striking, often white, structures house a range of attractions. You can explore the Oceanogràfic, Europe's largest aquarium, teeming with marine life. The Hemisfèric offers IMAX films and planetarium shows within its eye-shaped building.
