The 10 Best Points of Interest & Landmarks in Valencia, 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.

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.
6. Plaza del Ayuntamiento
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 2,028 reviews
The palatial Ayuntamiento (Town Hall) of Valencia dominates the square, and its bells chime out the hours. Surrounding the plaza are other buildings from the city's golden age, such as the Correos (the main post office). In the center of the plaza, a fountain is surrounded by flower stalls with all the colors, sizes, varieties imagineable. This is a good starting point from which to visit Valencia's old quarter or today's most fashionable shops.

My favourite part of VLC. The city hall and surrounding buildings are just beautiful and a real city feature. Lots of paces to stop and refresh and watch the world pass you by. A great place to visit and viewing is free. Check out the square as there are often events and festivals/fiestas there too.

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.
8. Plaza del Mercado (Placa del Mercat)

In this still bustling plaza you will find three of the must-visit buildings in the city, including the Mercat Central.
Reviewed By GeysirGal - Surrey, United Kingdom
This big open plaza takes its name of course from the indoor market which is the centrepiece, flanked by marble steps and with a huge array of all kinds of delicious things to consume. The Valencia card entitles you to a free drink and tapas from a variety of different sellers - choose which one appeals to you the most, there are several avaialble. The plaza itself is busy and bustling as you would expect - close to both the tourist district in the old part of town and the more modern part of the city towards the main railway station. A great place for getting to know the city and for people watching.

Constant Companion loves the decorative arts so this family home in the wonderful Carmen district of Valencia was on her "to do" list. It was a bit of a challenge finding it due to the small winding streets, the lack of signage, and our unfamiliarity with the area! But it was worth it!! The home contains works by Jose Bennlliure Ortiz, his son Peppino and sculptor brother Mariano, and art by others such as Joaquin Sorolla. The gardens in the rear feature some interesting tiles and are very relaxing. The highlight for me was the artist's studio in the rear of the garden. So glad we made the effort to visit!
