The Secret of the Sleeping River: an adventure in Valencia’s Turia Garden

0 (0 ratings)
🇬🇧
Walk through Valencia’s Turia Gardens in the company of someone who remembers everything the river has seen. This is not just a tour, it’s a journey through memory, resilience, and imagination. 

As you follow your grandfather’s gentle pace from the ancient Serranos Towers to the futuristic City of Arts and Sciences, each stop reveals a story, a puzzle, and a piece of a city that transformed a disaster into one of the world’s most beautiful urban parks. 

You will uncover symbols hidden in stone, count arches, read the sky in architecture, and witness how history flows beneath modern curves—all while slowly understanding the secret your grandfather has carried with him all these years.

Highlights

  • Walk the Turia Garden from past to future, moving through medieval towers, stone bridges, modern sculptures, and dazzling white structures that rise like dreams from the water.

  • Solve gentle puzzles woven into the landscape—spot symbols, count arches, read reflections, and uncover meaning in design.

  • Experience Valencia through memory, guided by your grandfather’s stories: moments of joy, love, loss, and rebirth.

Storyline

Your grandfather was born by the Turia. Today he asks you to walk with him from the Serranos Towers toward the south. He moves at a gentle pace, mixing memories with a few tricky questions—little sparks that make you look closer. 

“It’s not a test,” he smiles, “just a conversation with the city.” Bridges, gardens, reflections, white curves: listen, answer, keep him company—until he finally shows you what he’s been carrying.
