Sound Shell and Sunken Gardens
Completed and ceremonially opened in December 1934 on land reclaimed after the 1931 earthquake, the curved white Sound Shell is an open-air Art Deco stage on Marine Parade. Ringed by a colonnade and flower-filled sunken gardens, it remains a venue for concerts and the city's Art Deco festival.
