Overview
In this experience we will discover:
● The Historical Legacy: We will start under the majestic Clock Building, the old maritime station of 1914, to understand how "el Grao" connected the city with the world.
● Industrial Beauty and Modernism: We will admire the Tinglados, jewels of metallic architecture decorated with Valencian ceramics that narrate the golden age of the export of oranges.
● A Challenge to Nature: We will discover why the port of Valencia is a masterpiece of artificial engineering, built on a difficult and sandy coastline.
● Vanguard and Entrepreneurship: We will cross into the future at the Marina of Valencia, an innovation ecosystem where training (EDEM) and David Chipperfield's iconic architecture in the Veles e Vents go hand in hand.
● Major Events Stage: We will remember the urban transformation brought by the America's Cup and Formula 1.
● The Double Side of the Port: We will enjoy the relaxed atmosphere of the nautical and sports area.
An unforgettable ending: We will finish next to the mouth of the port, where we will remember that Valencia no longer looks at the sea as a barrier, but as its great gateway to the world.
