Biopark Zoo, Valencia

As much as I tried to be very selective, I still got too many photos of some of the animals in the zoo of Valencia for one post. So I decided to post them all, but divided into 2 posts. I really enjoyed photographing the animals in the zoo, and I also liked the environment they are in. I really hope you like all the photos, because these are definitely one of my favorites :) 

Ciutat de les Arts i les Ciències (City of Arts and Sciences)

I knew that Valencia is a popular city of Spain, that is very touristic and nice to visit, but I didn't know it had these great and modern museums. Before we chose to visit Valencia, I did some research about the city and the pictures that came out everywhere where the ones of the City of Arts and Sciences, and as soon as I saw I knew I wanted to visit this city. Beside the buildings being amazing, all the installations, activities and shows are very entertaining and educative. It's a great place to visit no matter your age, but make sure you have at least one day to enjoy this place, because is very big and every building has a lot to see. I hope you like my photos of Ciutat de les Arts i les Ciències :)

Batalla de las Flores (Flower Battle)

During the days that I was in Valencia, I had the opportunity to see a nice event, which is called La Batalla de las Flores (in english: Battle of flowers). The event starts with a parade of horses with their riders in costumes and flower floats with girls and women in costumes as well and holding rackets. Once all the flower floats pass and they give the prices to the winners, the flower floats make another circle but this time they are being attacked by the public, who are throwing flowers at them. The girls and women on the flower floats, have their rackets to protect their faces against the flowers and also to strike back at the public, hence why it is named: battle of flowers. Once the parade is finished, a lot of spectators (specially kids) go in the field to fight with the flowers that are on the floor. I tried to select a good variety of photos to show you what I just explained and what I saw, I hope you can understand the event with the help of my photos and that you like them :)
