It seems to be geared for children, but many of the children I saw didn't look entertained. The actual building is beautiful and the grounds are gorgeous. Price for admission is 8 Euros. The museum is ENTIRELY interactive, with exhibits just haphazardly placed throughout. There were a few interesting exhibits, but that's about all I can say. If you only have a short time in Valencia, I recommend the Aquarium- it's incredible

This museum is at once impressed with the design of the entrance, the massive iron door seemed wide open. Then dive into the darkness and cool stone. It is logical and understandable, even if the Spanish / Catalan / English / Italian / French / German is not your native language: in these languages ​​there are explanations. "Time Machine": one of the four worked, perhaps because apart from us there was only one pair of tourists. Good visual aid it. The impression is, there is new information, and this is important. Tiket 2 €.

I really appreciate the cleanliness of the building, the attention to detail within each exhibit, and most notably, the interactive experiences. Each exhibit I visited had multiple interactive opportunities to help engage the audience. Great way to capture the attention of young and old alike; not just walking through looking and reading copious amounts of explanations on the art presented. One star off because some of the exhibits felt disjointed between one another, signage could be better.

Maaaaaaannnnnnn.....Chicago really lost out!!…read more The Chicago Spire, designed by Santiago Calatrava, was supposed to be erected as the tallest building in the USA. However, the efforts stalled and we were left with just a big hole in the ground. I mention that data point because the Cuidad de las Artes y las Sciences (City of Arts and Sciences) was designed by Santiago Calatrava. He also designed Milwaukee's Modern Art Museum (I've been there) and the Occulus (NYC - haven't been yet). His futuristic, modern and clean designs incorporates and draws inspiration from local plants, the skeletal features of a whale, the sails of a ship, etc., etc....His work is instantly recognizable - like Frank Gehry's, Art Deco, and on a smaller scale - Frank Lloyd Wright. And coming here to the City of Arts and Sciences in Valencia, which by way, this place puts Valencia on the map as a Do Not Miss city!! I understand that Rick Steves did not overly advertise this great city and on this rare occasion, I respectfully think he's mistaken to do so. My only regret is that we just did a walk-by and a few drive-bys to admire its Beautiful design and the distinct buildings which include an aquarium, planetarium, museum, etc. There are outdoor areas for enjoying artwork, foliage, architecture, paddle boarding, so on and so forth. And try to wrap your mind around this - it's part of a linear parkway that extends about 6.5 KM in one direction!! If you're training for a marathon or an avid runner, what a big plus to run through this area on a daily basis. I can only think of running from Giants park to Golden Gate Bridge, being more picturesque. Or the lake front jogging path from Addison St. to 15th street in Chicago. On a smaller scale, I do see Santiago being influenced by Gaudi, here and there, and it's because of his use of organic shapes and tiles. Overall, Plan to spend a day or two here and actually go inside the facilities, my drive-bys and walk-bys provided just a glimpse of this futuristic compound.....

You should visit even if you are not really interested in dolls (I'm really not)…read more BUT... I love exploring the 60s, the 70s, the 80s, the 90s etc. and Museo de la Muñeca is a great place to do so. Dolls manufacturing is what the town of Onil is known for. The Nancy doll history goes back to 1968 - right, 50th anniversary this year! Her numerous versions that were in manufacturing over the last 50 years can be seen here: different fashion styles, various countries' and Spanish regional versions, black, white, Arabic, Asian you name it! They also have old molds, tools and machines on display here. AND... Kings are cooler than Santa :) I love the Reyes Magos (The Three Magi) holiday. As you probably know in the future all holidays will be celebrated non-stop all year round. The town of Onil is in line with the trend. The preparations start long before January, when the holiday is celebrated. The kings are already hanging out here (October!). Museo de la Muñeca offered a room to stay. The kings bedroom (probably the only one in the world) can be found here - three beds and three chests to drop a letter to Melchor, Gaspar or Baltasar. The most famous Parade of the Reyes in Spain will take place in Alcoi, a town nearby, in January: https://yelp.to/qTKq/kY3W9GqR2Q I visited last time but, shame, didn't review. First thing to do on Yelp in 2019! ALSO... There are lots of Playmobil toys (a German toys manufacturer) on display in the museum. I guess they have an agreement with Playmobil or does Playmobil own them now? I didn't ask. If you are a fan of Playmobil (there are many of them on Instagram) you will probably find the Playmobil exposition entertaining. All that from an adult's point of view, no doubt kids will enjoy the visit a lot more! If any of the things I mentioned sounds like fun why not go visit? P.S. Entrance is free. Honoured to review this place first (aka FTR) :)

We…read moregot here only 50 minutes before closing, so we had to see it fast, but we would not have missed it for the world. First, the exterior is amazing. Then the interior! Glass and crystal chandeliers. Gorgeous period rooms (carriages on the first floor!) Fabulous paintings- both framed and on the ceilings. Tiles, Vases, Mantel Clocks, Statues, kitchen ware- you name it, you will see it here. If you are familiar with the Decorative Arts Museum and the Romanticismo museum- this is like a combination of those two Madrid museums. It's 5 euros, but free if you have the National Museum Cards for Spain- which can be bought at many of the National Museums of Spain, and which we found to be a good deal, since we love museums. You can take pictures here- but NO flash. We were so happy to be able to take some pictures away to help us remember our experience.
