Valencia & Eastern Spain
A decade of bold development has given Spain’s third-largest city some of the most striking architecture in the country, adding to the wealth of elegant art nouveau buildings that line the streets, as well as Gothic and Renaisssance monuments. With dynamic museums, a flourishing restaurant scene, lively nightlife, great shops and miles of beach, Valencia is bursting with Mediterranean exuberance.
Valencia is now home to such glamorous, top-notch sporting events as the America's Cup and Formula One. But, as this weekend's events show, it has centuries of eventful history to its name.
There are ancient churches, a Unesco heritage-listed medieval market, Baroque palaces, a notable cathedral, and atmospheric back streets. Add to its Ernest Hemingway associations, hectic nightlife and a raft of highly rated restaurants to choose from, and you have an eclectic but beguiling mix – no wonder the city is now often mentioned in the same breath as Barcelona and Madrid.
