Valencia was the host city for Focus on Microscropy 2007, just after Easter.

An old palace, converted somewhat incongrously into a gallery of modern installation art.
|
Many churches still had ornate stages remaining from the Easter celebrations
|
This extraordinary piece of architecture is the Central produce market, and was
built in the late 20th century!

|
Hidden away, a little circular market selling only fabrics and haberdashery
|
Fighting for space - residential buildings and shops
are built right up against churches
|
How many churches can you have in one city square? Traffic is
chaos and getting sightlines is tricky
|
|

|
|
The cathedral - home to some magnificent art, and its most precious item, the Holy
Grail
|
It's impossible to get a view of the whole building - this is the
entrance at the east end
|
Yet another view. The building is a complex mix of early mediaeval
and baroque architecture.
