 City of Arts and Sciences What is the City of Arts and Sciences (CAC)?

The City of Arts and Sciences is a cultural entertainment centre with stunning architecture and great capacity to entertain, teach and excite by promoting public participation.

Situated along almost two kilometres of what was formerly the bed of the River Turia, with a surface area of 350,000 square metres, the City of Arts and Sciences is a huge open space.

Offering cultural and intellectual leisure, it has given Valencia the best centre of this type in Europe.

The outstanding role of its architecture was made possible thanks to the work of two Spanish architects of international renown, who have contributed the very best of their work to this area: the Valencian Santiago Calatrava, who designed the Palau de les Arts Reina Sofía, the Hemisfèric, the Príncipe Felipe Science Museum, the Umbracle, and the Ágora, and Félix Candela, designer of the unique roofing of the main Oceanográfico buildings.

An architectural collection of exceptional beauty, harmonising the outer structure with the content.
