On the second day of our visit to Valencia we did the same as the second day on the previous occasion that we visited – walked to the Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias and then to the beach.
It was more or less the same sort of day and you can read about it here.
Here are some new pictures – click on an image to view the Gallery..
The next time I visit Valencia I am going to go inside the exhibition halls, but today the weather was just too good to be indoors.
The buildings are fantastic but distressingly already showing signs of wear and tear.

The maintenance budget must be enormous!

The build went way over budget – poor management of superstar architect – and I suspect you’re right on maintenance.

I take Carmen and the markets this is so huge and modern they needed to do something in that space.

I think of Spain as being very traditional and conservative, yet they are avant garde when it comes to architecture!

It’s even better when you’re inside; and The Australian Ballet is on stage, or The SSO is on stage
