CCCC (Centro del Carmen de Cultura Contemporánea) — Attraction in Valencia

The CCCC is a stark contrast from the historical context at the center of Valencia.

I cupped my ears in the direction of the floor speaker and occasionally stood under the projector to understand the text. It takes over an hour to listen to all of the oratories but it is worth the time as the experience is powerful...
