You won’t get enough of this Mediterranean city, with more than 2,000 years of history, green spaces, various museums, historic buildings, lively squares with terraces to enjoy the sun, not to forget the long sandy beaches… The list is long, but here’s a selection of the essential things you need to do in Valencia.

Begin with a view of the historic centre and its rich artistic heritage. You can see the Holy Grail in the Cathedral; the Silk Exchange, a jewel of civil Gothic; the Central Market, one of the most alive and appetising in Europe; the ancient Roman ruins in the Almoina Museum, or go up to contemplate an unbeatable panoramic view of the city from the Miguelete or the Torres de Serrano.

Also, you can’t miss enjoying a good Paella by the beach. Nine kilometres of fine sand and a stone’s throw from the centre. The beaches of València are waiting for you!

You have the urban beaches of El Cabañal and La Malvarrosa, in the area of Poblados Marítimos, next to the famous neighbourhood of El Cabañal. A little further north continues the beach of Patacona, and to the south follow the beaches of Pinedo, La Devesa and El Saler, in the Natural Park of La Albufera.

All of them have a blue flag, are accessible by public transport and have good restaurants to enjoy the gastronomy of the area.

If you still have time, there are many things to see in Valencia. The city has more than 30 museums for everyone, from Fine Arts to Lead Soldiers, Science and IVAM.

In addition, you must have to try the authentic Valencian horchata or a good hot chocolate with churros. The Colón Market, the Plaza de la Reina or the Plaza de la Virgen has good establishments for this and are also very atmospheric and interesting places to visit in Valencia.
