The eye-catching centerpiece of Valencia's City of Arts and Sciences, designed by Santiago Calatrava to resemble a giant human eye symbolizing knowledge. Anchored in a 24,000-square-metre reflecting pool, its concrete shell features moving brise-soleil shutters that open like an eyelid. Inside, an IMAX Dome cinema and digital 3D planetarium project immersive science and nature films onto a 900-square-metre concave screen.

Highlights

  • Calatrava's futuristic architecture shaped like an eye
  • IMAX Dome cinema and planetarium on a 900 m² screen
  • Expansive reflecting pool surrounding the white dome
