Had a lovely tour around palace when visiting Gandia recently. Our registered guide was fantastic and told us all about the Borjas and the fascinating history of the palace. Well worth a visit when in the area.

The tradition of a centenary celebration, Intangible Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO, and the latest technologies, go hand in hand with the Fallera de Gandia Museum. This building has become a benchmark in the interpretation of our culture and identity, recognized by the SICTED quality tourism certificate. The Museum offers you a different experience where you will learn the roots of the Valencian people. You will enjoy the best "Ninots" and the process of creating a fault, you will know the craft of a faller artist, the only one in the world. You will discover the secrets of dressing up a fallera and the typical Valencian clothing, you will live in first person a "mascleta" and will surround you with traditional music. Finally we will reveal the mystery of the ritual of fire. A different Museum with educational and interactive spaces. Visits are always guided, adapted to each group, with touch screens, sound sets and adapted access.
Although the festivities surrounding Las Fallas appear to be one huge loud party, the community spirit and sheer hard work required to create the spectacle are immense. Many of the towns in the province of Valencia have their own Fallas festivities. Gandia has over 20 communities each of whom work throughout the year to produce the floats, the costumes and the carnival. It is a truly community project. This museum and its superb guides will explain it all! The enthusiasm of the community spirit comes through these guides. Although the figures are burned at the end of the Fallas, the winner is not, so there are various displays of figures going back many years. We were fascinated!

We visited in winter and not long after the storms which left the beaches battered. They are just about recovered and the council (and volunteers) are working hard still. This is a beautiful beach. At town centre end there in the port which opens to a beautiful and long golden beach with recreational zones. It is superb and a stunning beach.
