Overview of the tour in Valencia

I am Sonia, graduated in Art History and official guide. Born in Valencia, it will be a privilege to be able to show you my city!

I will explain to you the origins of Valencia, and the different walled enclosures that the city has had. We will admire the spectacular Torres de Serranos and the Portal de la Valldigna.

We will continue walking along the old and stately Caballeros street, where the beautiful church of San Nicolás is located, until we find the Plaza de la Virgen, the Basilica de los Desamparados and the fountain, among others... Also, Virgin Square hosts a ceremony declared World Heritage.

We will continue surrounding the cathedral, and witness three cultures. The place where the current temple stands dedicated to the Assumption of Mary is the fruit of the passage of time of various previous cultures and religions, including Roman, Muslim, and Jewish. And on the route, we will see it.

In addition, the cathedral of Valencia guards a treasure: The Holy Chalice...

We will advance to the curious Plaza Redonda.

We will finally arrive at the Lonja de la Seda. And the Central Market, which is a wonderful example of Valencian modernist architecture.
