Valencia Essentials

Valencia showcases a distinctive blend of Santiago Calatrava’s high-tech architecture and early 20th-century modernism. The futuristic City of Arts and Sciences complex features the interactive Príncipe Felipe Science Museum and the Reina Sofia Palace of the Arts. In the city center, the Estación del Norte and Colon Market highlight Demetrio Ribes’ modernist designs. Cultural history is preserved at the Museum of Las Fallas and the historic Bullring, while the Turia Gardens offer unique recreation at the Gulliver playground. Nearby, the Mediterranean coast is accessible at the expansive La Malvarossa Beach.
