 Excellent page with wonderful pics! As for me, Valencia was the only city where modern architecture wasn't less interesting then medieval one thanks to Colatrava's talent. You brought me back memories from last April. Pity it was only one day!

 One of my favoured towns in Spain. Monuments, museums, great aquarium, fantastic market, close to the sea, good food and wine and kept some authenticity.
