Description
Designed by Santiago Calatrava and Felix Candela, the L'Hemisferic houses an IMAX Cinema, planetarium and laserium.
The building is meant to resemble a giant eye, and has an approximate surface of 13,000 sq. meters. The Hemesferic also known as 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. The bottom of the pool is glass, creating the illusion of the eye as a whole.
