Housed inside a spectacular curved dome designed to look like an eye, l’Hemisfèric is one of Valencia’s premier attractions. Inside the eye – acting as a kind of “pupil” – is an IMAX dome, which features a 9,000-plus square foot (900sqm) concave screen housing three projectors.

As well as showing films on IMAX and 3D screens, the dome hosts frequent astronomical shows, where visitors can learn all about the stars, black holes and galaxies.
