Things to do in Valencia, Valencian Country: The Best Architectural Buildings

December 21, 2021 Kiesha Cripe

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.

La Lonja de la Seda

Reviewed By Geeytrips

At 2 euros entrance fee plus a couple more for the audio guide, the Lonja is well worth a visit whilst touring the city. I fully concur with the other reviews I have read about this charming place.

Estacio del Nord

Reviewed By GeysirGal - Surrey, United Kingdom

I second the reviewer before me who said that the station is rivalled by Porto for its beauty - it certainly is, especially at night when it's lit up. Its beautiful though at any time with its wonderful windows and floodlit entrance hall.

Santa Catalina Church (Iglesia de Santa Catalina)

Reviewed By Echter_Potsdamer - Potsdam, Germany

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.

Central Market of Valencia

Reviewed By jos3191 - Rotterdam, The Netherlands

Central Market of Valencia is definitely worth a visit, if only to walk through the beautiful stained-glass building and stroll through stalls of fresh vegatables, fruit, meat, the best seranno ham, fish, fruit, coffee, chocolat and other treats. If you're staying in Valencia for a while, skip the supermarkets and buy your fresh food at this market.
