Valencia is the better city in Spain in new architectural project (urban circuit (with Jean Nouvel, i think), new stadium, zone of museums (Santiago Calatrava) etc...:tup:

Great photos of a lovely city.
A pity there are no pictures of the many new developments over there cause Valencia is really booming.
