My first time on shooting from this side of Science World. Now that the Olympic Village is open, I will definitely come back.
My wife and I were shooting at the same location. Have a look at her stream, too.
Thanks everyone for their kind comments, faves and visits!
A unique collection of buildings, a tribute to spreading knowledge and understanding of the natural world.
This is inspired from the movie Weird Science, definitely an 80's classic that I was addicted to watching!

So, the season premiere of the Flash Season 3 sucked, but episode two gives me a bit more hope that this will be different from Arrow Season 3. But, we can only hope.

A dusk scene at the Science and Arts Park in Valencia. The phrase "following the science" is being consistently utilised by the Government relation to the lockdown and the control of the response to the Coronavirus Pandemic. It put me in mind of this visit to the "science" campus here and a magical evening at "blue hour" in Spain.

L'Hemisfèric (1998) — an IMAX Cinema, planetarium and laserium. The building is meant to resemble a giant eye, and has an approximate surface of 13,000 m².
The Hemesfèric, AKA the planetarium or the eye of knowledge, is the centerpiece of the City of Arts and Sciences. It was the first building completed in 1998. Its design resembles an eyelid that opens to access the surrounding water pool. There is a remarkable echo in the building and if two people stand at the two opposite pillars inside of the eye they can speak with each other.
Cuenca, Castilla-La Mancha, España.
Cuenca es un municipio y ciudad española perteneciente a la comunidad autónoma de Castilla-La Mancha y capital de la provincia homónima. Está situada algo al norte del centro geográfico de la provincia, a una altitud media de 946 m sobre el nivel del mar y su extenso término municipal, de unos 911 km², es uno de los mayores de España. El municipio cuenta con una población empadronada de 53 389 habitantes (INE 2022).
Aunque en los alrededores de la ciudad se tiene constancia de población desde el Paleolítico Superior, no es hasta la conquista musulmana cuando se construye la fortaleza de Qūnka, que dio origen a la ciudad actual. Esta se contaba, en origen, entre las otras tantas de la cora de Santaver (Ercávica), pero fue ganando importancia paulatinamente. El rey cristiano Alfonso VIII la conquistó en 1177 y le otorgó el Fuero de Cuenca, uno de los más prestigiosos de la historia de Castilla. Su economía se centró en la industria textil, de gran renombre durante los siglos XV y XVI, lo que produjo una gran actividad constructiva. Sin embargo, la pañería se hundió en el siglo XVII, conllevando una drástica pérdida de población, que fue recuperándose a lo largo del siglo siguiente. En 1833 se convirtió en la capital de la nueva provincia de Cuenca, aunque las agitaciones del periodo hicieron que la ciudad se mantuviera en estado precario hasta bien entrado el siglo XX. En la actualidad, la economía se centra sobre todo en el turismo, potenciado desde que en 1996 su casco antiguo fuese declarado Patrimonio de la Humanidad.
Cuenca conserva un importante patrimonio histórico y arquitectónico en toda la ciudad antigua, donde destacan edificios como la catedral o las Casas Colgadas, que se han convertido en el icono de la ciudad. Se caracteriza también por poseer un buen número de museos (más de diez) en el reducido espacio del casco antiguo. Destacan el Museo de Arte Abstracto Español, el Museo de las Ciencias de Castilla-La Mancha, el Museo Paleontológico de Castilla-La Mancha y el Museo de Cuenca. Entre los principales eventos culturales se encuentran la Semana Santa y la Semana de Música Religiosa.
Cuenca is a Spanish municipality and city belonging to the autonomous community of Castilla-La Mancha and capital of the homonymous province. It is located somewhat to the north of the geographic center of the province, at an average altitude of 946 m above sea level and its extensive municipal area, of about 911 km², is one of the largest in Spain. The municipality has a population registered with 53,389 inhabitants (INE 2022).
Although there is evidence of population in the surroundings of the city since the Upper Paleolithic, it was not until the Muslim conquest when the fortress of Qūnka was built, which gave rise to the current city. This was originally among the many others from the Santaver (Ercávica) cora, but gradually gained importance. The Christian king Alfonso VIII conquered it in 1177 and granted it the Fuero de Cuenca, one of the most prestigious in the history of Castile. focused on the textile industry, of great renown during the 15th and 16th centuries, which produced a great construction activity. However, the drapery collapsed in the 17th century, leading to a drastic loss of population, which gradually recovered over the following century. In 1833 it became the capital of the new province of Cuenca, although the upheavals of the period kept the city in a precarious state until well into the 20th century. Today, the economy is mainly focused on tourism, strengthened since its old town was declared a World Heritage Site in 1996.
Cuenca preserves an important historical and architectural heritage throughout the old city, where buildings such as the cathedral or the Hanging Houses stand out, which have become the icon of the city. It is also characterized by having a good number of museums (more than ten) in the reduced space of the old town. The Museum of Spanish Abstract Art, the Science Museum of Castilla-La Mancha, the Paleontological Museum of Castilla-La Mancha and the Museum of Cuenca stand out. Among the main cultural events are Holy Week and Music Week Religious.
