Valencia Travel Tips
Spain's third-largest city, and capital of the province of Valencia, comes as a pleasant surprise to many. Home to paella and the Holy Grail, it is also blessed with great weather and the spring festival of Las Fallas, one of the wildest parties in the country.
The aesthetically stunning Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias (City of Arts & Sciences) occupies a massive 350,000 sq m (3,767,400 sq ft) of the old Turia riverbed. Attracting over four million visitors annually, the ultra-modern complex contains a planetarium, an IMAX cinema, an interactive science museum and Oceanogràfic, the largest aquarium in Europe.
