Barbarians invade Valencia! Moving up 2 spots this year is Cuba-Litarto Azorín’s monument (location). With wacky characters and an interesting theme, this was a lot of fun to walk around. We heard more than one old lady cackling at the ninots.

Placed just 100 meters down the road from Sueca-Literato Azorín’s, it’s hard to avoid comparing the two monuments. You’d likely view one right after the other. In this case, we think the jury got it right — Cuba-Literato Azorín’s was slightly better.
