WALES MILLENNIUM CENTRE

The architecture of this concert hall is unprecedented, with its combination of metal, wood, glass and slate. Its façade is composed of words, in Welsh on the left ("Creu Gwir Fel Gwydr O Ffwrnais Awen") and English on the right ("In These Stones Horizons Sing"), forming a verse written for the occasion by Gwyneth Lewis, the great Welsh poet born in Cardiff in 1959. To give you an idea of the translation, it would be "In these stones, horizons sing". Featuring a vast auditorium with ideal acoustics, it can accommodate both opera and theater.
