The building is modern and monumental. The decoration is abundant, with Valencian elements. In the center of the main facade there is a Tower that houses the clock. Inside, the Crystal Hall and the Sessions Hall stand out, as does the large marble staircase. Outside, two elliptical domes covered with glazed tile stand out, and the large balcony that covers the central body of the main floor.
