The city is yours.
Market mornings, hidden ceilings, and a little time among the palms.
OUTSIDE YOUR FRONT DOORA few places.
A few places.
A lasting impression.
Make Carrer Triador your starting point. Explore the old town’s landmarks, then head a little further for the green paths of the Turia.
La Lonja de la Seda
Just across from the market, Valencia’s Gothic silk exchange rewards a slower look. Step into the columned trading hall and its quiet courtyard.
Carrer de la Llotja, 2, Valencia
Torres de Quart
Two monumental medieval towers mark the edge of the old city. Look for the cannonball scars in the stone, then climb up for a different perspective on the rooftops.
Plaça de Santa Úrsula, 1, Valencia
San Nicolás
Behind an unassuming entrance, an extraordinary painted ceiling unfolds above you. This fresco-filled church is one of the old town’s most memorable interiors.
Carrer dels Cavallers, 35, Valencia
Jardín del Turia
The former riverbed is now a long ribbon of gardens, bridges and paths. Take a walk among the palms, or hire a bicycle and make an afternoon of it.
