About this experience
Europe doesn't have many cities with a distinct modernist facade. Paris, Barcelona, Riga - yes, and Valencia. I will help you uncover the uniqueness of the local architecture and decode the symbolism of its natural forms, amazing colors, and quirky creatures on the facades.
What to Expect
History of Modernism
I will show you the most beautiful urban buildings in the modernist style. I will tell you what makes this direction special, who and when it was created by, in which countries it developed the most, and when and with whom it came to Valencia. Additionally, you will learn which famous architects worked on the extraordinary local houses and who owns them.
Valencia of the Modernist Era
You will closely examine the exterior decor of about a dozen residential buildings on the most beautiful streets of the city. Among them are the House of Swallows, the House of Dragons, and the Jewish House. Visit the North Station and explore two modernist markets - Central and "Colon".
