Valencia’s City of Arts and Science
Written by Rachel WebbThe City of Arts and Science is Valencia’s “city of the future” a huge complex of museums, it has an incredible 60-foot entrance with 55 arches. The city is vitually underwater and includes an aquarium, science museum, planetarium and a performing arts center.
The Oceanographic, is the largest marine park in Europe with a series of parabolic buildings – don’t miss the high-tech tour of the world’s marine habitats.
The Prince Felipe Museum of Science is installed in the roof that is in the shape of a a dinosaur’s spine, it includes a 130-foot transparent wall. This is an interesting child-friendly interactive museum with holograms and lasers.
Yet another part of the complex is The Hemispheric the state-of-the-art planetarium which has an IMAX theatre which shows various films throughout the days and weeks.
A combined ticket for all the attractions which can be used over three days, for further details see their website.
It’s good to know that the Oceanographic and the Prince Felipe are child-friendly museums…. We’re planning our next vacation with our children and would like to make the most of our trip in Valencia.
We have already booked an tiny hotel in the city centre and are looking now for an economic rental car to visit its tourist places of interest. We have found this cheap car hire Valencia on the web and have not booked yet, because we don’t know them.
Can you help?
Eeze thanks for your comment and I hope that you enjoy your trip to Valencia. I am sorry but I don’t know anything about the car hire company in the link.
