Explore the capital of the Valencian Community and discover its great mix of past and present on a half-day sightseeing tour of Valencia.
Start by enjoying "Torres de Serrano". Admire buildings of elaborate Modernist and Moorish design before arriving at the 15th-century Silk Exchange (Llotja de la Seda). Declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1996, it was one of the main buildings of Valencia during Spain’s golden age.
Walk to the Mercado Central, which as well as being a masterpiece of Modernist design is where you can see the city in full swing as shoppers stock up on fresh fish, meat, fruit, vegetables and more. The unusual Plaza Redondo will be your next stop to marvel at the circular “square” with narrow streets leading off it. The plaza is a great place to find ceramic keepsakes.
Stop to taste an authentic horchata, a refreshing soft drink made from tiger nuts and sold at horchaterias. You will visit the oldest one in town. End with a panoramic view of the Cathedral, commonly known as the “Seu.” Admire its mix of Gothic, Romanesque, Baroque, and Neoclassical elements before walking to Plaza de la Virgen to go inside the stunning Basilica of Our Holy Lady of the Forsaken; the patron saint of Valencia.
