The Churra Way and the Augusta Way
Valencia and its cycling routes In this post I am going to talk about Valencia and possibly one of the best known bike paths, the Churra Way and its "sister path", the Augusta Way. Although I love hiking trails, I have already talked about several of them, such as the...

Ateneo Sky Bar Restaurant
I have been in Valencia for 4 months now. Enough time to have located the best places for certain requirements. It never took me long to find where to go and how to get there as Valencia is pretty small and there’s so much to see, but you can do this in a few...

Albufera route through the beaches of Valencia
Let's continue once again exploring new places! On this occasion, one of the best routes I know is the walk to get to Albufera in Valencia. In this article I am not going to explain Albufera in detail, but rather one of the routes you can take in order to get there,...

María Mandiles
Valencia is a small, very calm city and has lots of things to see. When it comes to food, I have found one of my favourite eateries in the city centre. On my first day here, I came across the beautiful María Mandiles restaurant a little after having visited Las Torres...

Món Orxata
Because the palate must also be spoilt... One of the experiences that you absolutely cannot miss out on whilst in Valencia is trying natural Valencian tiger nut water (which is both lactose and gluten free), preferably from Món Orxata, which can be found being handed...

Jardín del Turia
One of the things that I love about Spain is seeing the way in which their citizens can construct something that's both useful and environmentally-friendly, as well as being of cultural interest, from something that was either in ruins or inhabitable. An example of...
-
Plaza Mayor
The Plaza Mayor in Salamanca is one of the city’s main tourist attractions, thanks to its Baroque-style architecture. This tourist hotspot is an absolute must-see - you cannot miss out on seeing it! If you have already visited Madrid’s very own Plaza Mayor, you will...

The Riverbed of the River Turia
This beautiful park used to be a river than ran through the city. It is now an ideal area to take a break and go to chill, with lots of water installations and shady green areas, or sunbathing spots if you fancy somewhere quieter than the beach. There are several parks...
-
l'Umbracle
Science centre and botanic garden by day, club by night. By day this is the main sight to see in Valencia. It is formed by a few giant white, modern structures that look very arty and statue-esque, with a few pools in between them. The botanic gardens are really pretty,...
-
Valencia Cathedral
Valencia Cathedral is one of the city's main attractions: I would categorise it as being a 'must-see' when you come to visit this beautiful city. The cathedral is located right in the heart of the historic city centre, very close to Plaça de la Reina (Plaza de la...
-
The City of Arts and Sciences
One of the main attractions, and reasons why lots of people want to come to Valencia, is the impressive architectural complex of the City of Arts and Sciences, or Ciutat de les Arts i les Ciències, in Catalan. It's important to mention that, although the official...

Xiao II
I like a lot Chinese food, so my friends and I went many times to this restaurant which was close to my house. There is an all-you-can-eat buffet everyday and I think it's the cheapest Chinese restaurant I've seen -in Valencia and in general. The buffet costs 6€, 7€...

The Valencian Fallas
On a rainy Thursday during the month of March, it was time to go to the most famous festival of Valencia: 'las Fallas'! We quickly realised the scale of the event which was yet to be known to us on this day: the sounds of fireworks, the streets jam-packed with people...

Oceanográfic
Situated in the City of Arts and Sciences, this space was a real discovery. Firstly, the place is made exceptional by the architecture of the exterior white buildings, designed by Felix Candela; as well as the surrounding water basins. The museum that precedes Europe's...

Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias
It is probably one of the best places in the world, where you can appreciate the mix of big architectonic pieces, and the culture of the country, and it's nature.

Mescafe
The first time that I went to Mescafe was the night before Christmas. There were many people and it felt like a club, but only because we had gone after midnight. Because we liked the atmosphere so much we decided to visit it again the next day. If you go to Mescafe in...

La Pepica
Do you like paella? Have you tried the best paella in Spain? Before I ate in this famous restaurant on Malvarrosa beach in Valencia, I was naive enough to believe that no paella could ever be better than my mum's, but after eating here, I realised I was wrong (though my...

From Albufera to Perellonet and the beaches of Sueca
Once again I'm going to talk about another new route in Valencia, I have already talked about some in my other articles but Valencia is lucky enough to have long paths with good bicycle tracks, perfect for cyclists but also great for walkers. So you should do the route...

Playa de la Malvarrosa
La Malva Rosa, or Platja La Malvarrosa in Catalan, is one of the most popular beaches in Valencia due to its close proximity to the city and accessibility. Los Poblados´s maritime port is close and visible from the beach, where the ferries to Palma de Mallorca, Ibiza...
