Description

The Auditorio de Tenerife is the work of Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava. It is an emblematic building of Spanish architecture,and the great sailing boat has become a symbol of the city, island and archipelago. It has two chambers, the Symphony Hall and the Chamber Hall. It is located next to the Atlantic Ocean in the southern part of Port of Santa Cruz de Tenerife. The construction began in 1997 and was completed in 2003. You can see the relative dimension looking at the people on the left. Thanks for your kind comments.
