A beautiful city in Spain
Valencia is one of the most beautiful cities in Spain. Even though it has a very modern aspect, the biggest attraction of the city is represented by its amazing history.
The most important aspect in the history of Valencia is the Moorish occupation, which surprisingly lasted for a very long time; only Granada was occupied for a longer period of time by the Moors. The occupation left a series of traces which are still visible today and an important heritage which makes Valencia such a special Spanish city.
A long list of sightseeing attractions
Sightseeing is a very important activity in Valencia. You will find most of the important monuments gathered around the centre of the city. Some of them patiently wait for their visitors in the Ayuntamiento Square; others surround the Cathedral while the rest of them are hosted by the Barrio del Carmen, the historical district of Valencia.
In addition to the great number of monuments that you will find in the District, the Jardines Del Turia represents a place that you are not allowed to miss: the lush gardens are absolutely spectacular; spending time on their alleys is like seeing how heaven looks like.
The Miguelette is the Tower of the Cathedral and it represents a major point of attraction for all tourists as it is the emblem of Valencia. De La Virgen Square is another important place where you definitely have to go because it is packed with pavement cafes where delicious tapas can be tasted by you.
The Square is very interesting on weekends, when you might have the chance to see a traditional wedding (actually, the participants heading towards the church). I am sure that all those who visit Valencia fall in love with it, so why shouldn’t you be one of them?
