But my favorite thing about the #MuseoNacionaldeCerámicayArtesSuntuarias was the building itself!

#Picasso #ceramics (among others) and the carriage that apparently inspired "Cinderella" at the #MuseoNacionaldeCerámicayArtesSuntuarias in #ValenciaSpain

In #March ever year, #Valencia celebrates #LasFallas - a festivity that combines #tradition #satire & #art

I was lucky to be there on the first day of the festival, and see some amazing traditional dress!

The #UNESCO #falles often depict famous people or critique current affairs. The structures are burned on the #springequinox with an exception which is pardoned and placed in the #fallesmusem

Here are different views of the #PalaudelesArtsReinaSofía (the # artmuseum in #ValenciaSpain designed by #ArchitechtSantiagoCalatrava

Controversial #Valencian #architect #SantiagoCalatrava designed the #ciudaddelesartesylasciencias #cityofartsandsciences in the former #riverbed and it is truly impressive, in an #epcotcenter kind of way.

The #RiverTuria had a tendency to flood so it was rerouted south of #Valencia. The government wanted to put a freeway but the activists common to the city said "no, we want a park" and now nearly 10 km of green space is dedicated to soccer fields, playgrounds, art, and nature!

The other remaining gate to the old city of #Valencia and you can see how tall the walls were (4m I think). These two towers survived only because they served as prisons.

My first bluesky/mastedon post is of the adorable (though quite crowded) Rotterdam-The Hague airport.
