Washed by the waters of the Mediterranean Sea, Valencia is one of the most privileged areas of the Spanish coastline. Hundreds of kilometres of beautiful beaches, a mild climate all year round (in winter temperatures rarely drop below 10ºC) and an excellent gastronomy based on the Mediterranean diet.

The villas and residential areas that dot the region’s coves and bays are the focus of attention for foreign visitors and residents while the city of Valencia brings together all the attractions of a large city. The nearby location of this metropolis is of particular interest to residents as it brings the culture and amenities of a large centre within easy reach.

Already a jewel of the Mediterranean, Valencia, Spain’s third largest city, is an amalgam of history, culture and fun, combining big-city sophistication with a Mediterranean taste for relaxed living.

Valencia epitomises the charm of a Mediterranean city. Monuments such as the Lonja de los Mercaderes (World Heritage Site), the Cathedral and Basilica, Mercado de Colón, Estación del Norte, Santos Juanes church or the Micalet and Santa Catalina towers, honour the past of a historic city, which looks to a vibrant future through the Ciutat de les Arts i les Ciències, designed by the Valencian architect Santiago Calatrava or the future Central Park. Valencia brings together cultural attractions such as the IVAM, MuVIM and San Pío V museums. Visitors will be seduced by a gastronomy that begins in the popular Central Market, passes through the tables of establishments specialising in Valencian cuisine (Casa Roberto, Racó del Turia, Casa Montaña) and ends in the kitchens of international references of haute cuisine such as Ricard Camarena (Camarena Restaurant), Quique Dacosta (Vuelve Carolina), Bernd Knöller (Riff), Vicente Patiño (Saiti) or Raúl Aleixandre (Vinícolas). Just a few kilometres from the capital, a visit to the Devesa del Saler Nature Reserve is a must, along with the Albufera lake, from where you can enjoy an unforgettable sunset.
