Over Valencia

Valencia, located on Spain's southeastern coast, is a delightful fusion of ancient tradition and futuristic innovation. From its charming old town and bustling markets to the avant-garde architecture of the City of Arts and Sciences, Valencia offers an enticing mix of experiences that beckon to the curious traveler.

Interesting Facts

Valencia is the birthplace of paella, Spain's famous rice dish. It's typically made with local ingredients such as rabbit, chicken, and green beans. The city celebrates its culinary heritage each year with the International Paella Contest.

Valencia is known for hosting Las Fallas, a grand festival held in March, where massive, beautifully detailed sculptures of paper and wood are created and then set ablaze.

The city boasts the largest urban park in Spain, the Turia Gardens, which winds around the city center, occupying what was once the Turia riverbed.

Top Places to Visit

The City of Arts and Sciences is a must-see, with its state-of-the-art architecture and a planetarium, an opera house, and Europe's largest aquarium.

The historic city center houses the Valencia Cathedral, where the Holy Grail—the cup Jesus supposedly drank from at the Last Supper—is said to be housed. Also, explore La Lonja de la Seda, a UNESCO World Heritage site and a masterpiece of Gothic civil architecture.

The vibrant Central Market is one of the oldest running food markets in Europe, housed in a beautiful Art Nouveau building.

Hidden Gems

Behind the Cathedral, you can find Plaza de la Almoina, an archeological site showing Valencia's historical layers, from Roman ruins to Arabic baths.

El Carmen neighborhood, with its narrow medieval streets and a mix of architectural styles, is a less-touristy area filled with local boutiques, art studios, and hidden spots such as Portal de la Valldigna—an old city gate that once separated the Christian and Moorish quarters.

The lesser-known beach of Patacona, just north of the city, offers a more relaxed and local experience compared to the popular Malvarrosa beach.

Explore the Albufera Natural Park, a short drive from the city. This freshwater lagoon surrounded by rice fields is a great place for bird-watching and experiencing a traditional boat ride.

Valencia's unique blend of old and new, combined with its inviting climate, delectable cuisine, and vibrant culture, offers something for everyone. Whether you're a history buff, a foodie, a nature lover, or an architecture enthusiast, you'll find plenty to explore in this Spanish gem. Valencia's diversity and vibrancy create a city that pulses with life, leaving visitors with unforgettable experiences.
