The 10 Best Things to do in La Seu, Valencian Country
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.

5.0 based on 2,155 reviews
Conocida como la "Capilla Sixtina valenciana”, San Nicolás es uno de los templos más atractivos de la ciudad, con cerca de 2.000 metros cuadrados de pinturas al fresco perfectamente rehabilitadas que dejan al visitante sin aliento. Las espectaculares pinturas que decoran la bóveda suponen el doble de superficie que los frescos que hay en la Capilla Sixtina de Roma. Con más de 700 años de antigüedad, San Nicolás, que ya fue lugar de culto en época romana antes de ser mezquita e iglesia cristiana después, es un claro ejemplo de convivencia perfecta entre un templo de estructura gótica y una espléndida decoración barroca. La visita, gestionada por Menta Valencia, es toda una experiencia sensorial que permite recorrer este espacio tanto con guías especializados como de forma más independiente con el uso de audioguías en varios idiomas.

We visited here after already paying to enter the Silk Museum so missed out on the free entry that the regular 7 euro ticket here grants you. A very informative audio guide provided with the entrance fee that explains the plethora of detailed paintings and murals that cover every surface.

MONOCHROME Hub Art Gallery is a must-see place in Valencia. If you are living here or are just for a few days, stop by and take your piece of art photography. For decoration, stunning present or just for the memory of this wonderful town take the art with you. Visit our exhibitions and have the chance to meet the authors in person.

This part of the city really is beautiful - the heart of the medieval old town and close to the Cathedral and all the main tourist sites. The architecture and the atmosphere are extraordinary - and always busy and bustling, except perhaps in Covid (I visited long before this). You can really get a feel for the city here by walking around and exploring all the narrow little streets. The area also boasts some of the city's finest restaurants for both in and outdoors dining - I had a lovely Spanish style ham, egg and chips in a restaurant by the Cathedral. There are plenty of places too for trying the famous Aqua da Valencia, which packs quite a punch.

This is one of the main thoroughfares that leads into the historic old town, lined with wonderful old buldings which at one time were the houses of the city's aristocrats. These days they house a variety of shops and restaurants. Little alleyways lead off in all different directions featuring many hidden gems including churches and some fabulous street art. The end of the road opens into the wonderful open and airy Plaza de la Virgin with fountains, greenery and at times different forms of street entertainment.

A lovely old bell tower with 207-step spiral staircase inside, up to the summit with a powerful bell and great views of the city. It's definitely worth climbing up! The tickets cost virtually nothing, only 2 Euro/adult.

This is a must see on any trip to Valencia . We came off a Celebrity Cruise and found the chapel in the Cathedral of Valencia . It wasn't highlighted in any tour information we saw. . We found it to be very inspirational [as we are Christians ].The vocal guide provided when we entered [Cathedral has an entrance fee] gave a brief history as to how it came to be here. A religious experience I will treasure forever.

Santa Caterina is a wonderful building. Sparesely decorated it demonstrates the classical gothic style without lots of paintings or colourful decoration such as many of the other churches here. The large hall shows a special air of belief which is really special.

Fascinating glimpse into Valencia’s Roman history through a museum that is actually an archeological site. You are standing over ancient Roman roads and structures, all displayed to show the Roman Empire’s influences on the Valencia region. Definitely worth the 2 Euro per person entry fee.

A beautiful square with several lovely historic buildings around it, the gorgeous Cathedral overlooking the place and a very nice fountain in the center. Great both at day and night! Relax and watch the people!
