Avilés and Bilbao, Španija

Ko smo se vozili po Španiji, smo hitro dobili občutek, da mesta prav tekmujejo med seboj, kdo bo postavil bolj nenavaden, moderen kulturni ali kakšen drug center. No, predvsem pa magnet za morebitne nove obiskovalce. V Valencii tako kraljuje Ciudad de las Artes y de las Ciencias, v Santiago de Compostela ne ravno posrečen Cidade da Cultura de Galicia, v Avilés-u vesoljski Centro Niemeyer, v bližnjem Bilbau pa Guggenheim museum. Za nekatere le zmazki, stran vržen denar, za druge arhitekturni presežki, paša za oči. Presodite sami. 🙂

When we drove through Spain, we quickly got the feeling, that there must be some competition between the cities for getting more visitors, more media attention, because we saw so many unusual, modern architectural project all around Spain. In Valencia there is Ciudad de las Artes y de las Ciencias, in Santiago de Compostela Cidade da Cultura de Galicia, in Avilés Centro Niemeyer, in Bilbao, the Guggenheim Museum. For some, only waste of money for other architectural masterpieces. Judge for yourself. 🙂
