You’ll find plenty of orange trees here, but the fruit known as the "Valencia orange" was actually developed in California. Travelers interested in local food should focus on paella instead. While the city contains many monuments, Valencia’s modern crown jewel is the City of Arts and Sciences, a futuristic complex of museums, cinemas, theaters, and more.

DISCOVER THE CIUTAT DE LES ARTS I LES CIÈNCIES. Science, nature and art in a complex devoted to scientific and cultural dissemination in Europe, placed in Valencia. The City of Arts and Sciences in Valencia is a unique complex devoted to scientific and cultural dissemination which is made up of five main elements: the Hemisfèric (IMAX cinema and digital projections), the Umbracle (a landscaped vantage point and car park), the Príncipe Felipe Science Museum (an innovative centre of interactive science), the Oceanográfico (the largest aquarium in Europe with over 500 marine species) and the Palau de les Arts Reina Sofía (which takes care of the operatic programme). The Ágora gives the complex a multifunctional space.
It can be difficult to wrap your head around the City of the Arts and Sciences. The attraction is a staggering ensemble of ultra-modern structures that are given an ethereal quality by the reflecting pools that surround them. The whole thing was started in the mid-90s and the finishing touches were made in 2005. Within these gargantuan buildings are cultural venues and first-class family attractions like L’Hemisfèric, a planetarium and IMAX Cinema, or the breathtaking L’Umbracle, a botanical collection of plant species native to Valencia.

This is effectively the ex river bed now extensive and delightful park area which has been shaped and honed so that it has something for everyone in terms of sports facilities, water features, floral displays, natural tree shade, walking / cycling paths/routes etc. You can stroll around any part of this city park and enjoy it and/or just sit a while and read a book. Colourful and cared for it never disappoints and is well worth a visit !!

An amazing park feature, but not sure what to call it, a vast climbing frame with slides are other things to do on it, like a huge sculpture/fallen statue of Gulliver.

This little garden takes around 30 minutes to amble round. We took longer because it was a joy to behold. Ponds, flower beds trees an orangery formal gardens a raised area of a rock garden to explore plenty of photo opportunities. Quiet with not many fellow tourists. A little off the beaten track so you do have to hunt the garden out but it IS WELL WORTH IT. It is a short walk from the Royal gardens which are much bigger and of as much interest. Keep a lookout for the wild parakeets.....you’ll hear them before you see them.

I spent the afternoon out here at the lakes of Albufera and had a really good time as the sunset over the water. I found some funky bars by the water after the sun had set and ended up having the best night with some locals. The walks about the lakes are great for nature lovers and just for a bit of peace and quiet also.

BIOPARC VALENCIA is a unique zoo. Its design employs the “zooimmersion” concept, in which visitors are surrounded by meticulous recreations of the natural habitats being presented. Social animals that live together in groups are displayed, as well as groups of different species that coexist in the same habitats. Predatory species are integrated into the visual space, but are separated from other species by barriers invisible to the eye of the visitor, ensuring the safety of both the animals and the people. The animals, vegetation and landscape provide opportunities for discovering the complexity of natural ecosystems.
Really nice zoo with animals in spacious,clean enclosures.Baby gorillas were a plus.Easy to get to on bikes through the Turia gardens.
