DISCOVER THE CIUTAT DE LES ARTS I LES CIÈNCIES. Science, nature and art in a complex devoted to scientific and cultural dissemination in Europe, placed in Valencia. The City of Arts and Sciences in Valencia is a unique complex devoted to scientific and cultural dissemination which is made up of five main elements: the Hemisfèric (IMAX cinema and digital projections), the Umbracle (a landscaped vantage point and car park), the Príncipe Felipe Science Museum (an innovative centre of interactive science), the Oceanográfico (the largest aquarium in Europe with over 500 marine species) and the Palau de les Arts Reina Sofía (which takes care of the operatic programme). The Ágora gives the complex a multifunctional space.
It can be difficult to wrap your head around the City of the Arts and Sciences. The attraction is a staggering ensemble of ultra-modern structures that are given an ethereal quality by the reflecting pools that surround them. The whole thing was started in the mid-90s and the finishing touches were made in 2005. Within these gargantuan buildings are cultural venues and first-class family attractions like L’Hemisfèric, a planetarium and IMAX Cinema, or the breathtaking L’Umbracle, a botanical collection of plant species native to Valencia.

The Fallero de Valencia Museum, with 121,000 visitors in 2018, has become one of the essential places to visit in the city of Turia. It is a unique and unique museum in the world, since its collections of pardoned ninots, created to be grass of the flames, are chosen by popular vote and saved from the fire to be visited here. Also the Cartel de Fallas collection, signed by important and influential posters and the portraits gallery of Falleras Mayores de Valencia since 1995, surprise people who visit us every day. To fully understand the history of the ninots, we have available audio guides for sale in five languages (Spanish, Valencian, English, French and Italian) at the price of 1 euro. They work using QR code or link to web page on mobile or tablet.
The decision was made to cancel the Fallas shortly after I returned home last year and I guess it was cancelled again this year too. When I viisted the preparations were nevertheless in full swing with the daily fireworks from outside the City Hall - great fun to watch but very noisy! Knowing that I would not be able to see the real thing a visit to this small musuem was therefore a must. It's a stonesthrow from the City of Arts and Sciences so easy to combine with a day here and well worth the effort. Set over several floors it basically tells the story of the Fallas - how it all began and has developed since, with some fine examples of some of the smaller figures. Of course the larger ones are almost as tall as the building that houses the Museum. The artistry that goes into creating these things though is just so well, artistic and creative. There isn't another way to describe it. The expressions on the faces of the figures are very cartoon like and are obviously very tongue in cheek, designed to poke fun at celebrities and politicians alike - I think we need a Fallas in London. Imagine a giant Boris Johnson towering over the streets!

Singular Museum located in the historic center of Valencia. Its funds go through all the symbols and traditions of what was the city's biggest festival and that has been going through its streets since 1355. The Rocks, giants and nanos, the Bestiary, the dances can be seen in this small Golden Museum with interactive panels and audiovisuals so you can immerse yourself in the oldest Corpus Christi procession in Europe.
Highly recommend you pop in to this as it explains a celebration held in greasy esteem by this beautiful city. So Valencia’s historic centre is a beautiful place, twisty roads, tall beautiful buildings and we happened upon this wonderful unassuming free exhibit by chance as we turned a corner heading elsewhere. Pope’s in, took us 30 mins to navigate the exhibit. Very interesting, some incredible pieces to see. If you visit you will no doubt pick up references to the Corpus Christi festival on other places around the city during your visit, so coming to the exhibit helps you to understand and put it all in context.

I'd been before but was with a friend who hadn't seen the museum. For such a small sum it was fantastic value. From the outside it's clear it's different from many other historic buildings. Amazing rooms and decor and very nicely shown ceramic exhibits - truth be told though it was the building we wanted to see but we did find the exhibits interesting. Well worth a visit.

Fascinating glimpse into Valencia’s Roman history through a museum that is actually an archeological site. You are standing over ancient Roman roads and structures, all displayed to show the Roman Empire’s influences on the Valencia region. Definitely worth the 2 Euro per person entry fee.

The biggest Toy soldiers Museum in the world (the collection has more than a million pieces an almost a hundred thousand in display) in an ancient Gothic and Renaissance Palace in the Ancient Centre of Valencia. You will travel through History in 3D from Prehistory to nowadays living Ancient Civilisations like Egypt, Greece and Rome. You will be able to visit the ancient chapel of the Palace and enjoy the antique furniture surrounded by dioramas representing battles and every life made with the charm of miniatures.
Very cool museum, mostly painted figurines reenacting scenes from history, legend, comics. In a lovely old building and interspersed with artifacts you might expect in a more serious museum. Fun for parents and littles alike.
