Find Cheap flights to Valencia – Best Airfare Deals

València is located on Spain’s eastern coast, at the mouth of the Turia River, right in the centre of the Gulf of València. It is situated on the shores of the Mediterranean, a stretch of water which has gradually forged the city's character over the centuries. València’s geographical location makes it an excellent operational base from which to explore the rest of Spain. At just an hour and a half from Madrid by train, three hours from Barcelona by car, and with daily departures to the Balearic Islands, the capital of the Mediterranean is well worth a visit.

What are the Top 3 Things to Do in Valencia?

1. La Lonja de Seda - This magnificent Gothic structure was built in the 15th century to house the city's Silk Exchange, the marketplace where the famous Valencian silk was traded with merchants (to be sold all over Europe). One of the finest examples of Gothic civil architecture in Europe, the building resembles a medieval castle with its crenellated exterior and formidable tower. The facade features richly decorated doorways, decorative windows, and gargoyles (the grotesque carved creatures that function as waterspouts). The main hall has rich stellar vaulting borne on twisted columns. Visitors may climb the 144 stone steps of the tower's helical staircase. From the top of the tower, the views of the town are stunning. This attraction is open to the public daily. On Sundays, La Lonja is used as a venue for coin and stamp exhibitions.

2. City of Arts and Sciences - This modern architectural wonder sits at the end of the rerouted Turia river. Along the water sit a number of futuristic and unique buildings, including the well-known Oceanographic Aquarium. They also include L’hemisferic, which resembles a giant eye that can open and close and contains a planetarium and IMAX theater. The museum of principal sciences is a natural history museum designed to look like a whale’s skeleton. The Agora is a tall covered sports arena, and the Palau Opera house has four theaters, an opening roof, and moving platforms to connect between floors. The city is connected by a landscaped walk featuring Valencia’s native vegetation, and a beautiful suspension bridge.

3. Valencia's Central Market (Mercado Central) - This public market is considered one of the oldest European markets still running. It is open six days a week and closed on Sundays. The modernist roofed building that houses the market was built in 1914 and contained many beautiful stained-glass windows and rooms for over 400 merchants. Shoppers here can find gifts, souvenirs, and food items. For those who want to soak up the ambiance, a large tapas bar sits in the center of the market in full view of many of the shops.
