Tips for Romantic

Beyond Malvarrosa

For a quieter and wilder beach experience, take a bus to El Saler beach, next to the Albufera Natural Park.

Explore El Cabanyal

Get lost in the old fishing district, with its modernist houses with colored tiles. It is a popular architectural gem.

Understanding Failures

If you visit during the Fallas, be prepared for the noise of firecrackers and crowds. The 'mascletà' (2:00 p.m. in the Plaza del Ayuntamiento) is a spectacle of noise, not light.

Horarios de Comida

Lunch is between 2:00 p.m.-3:30 p.m. Dinner usually does not start before 9:00 p.m.

Agua del Grifo

Tap water is drinkable but has a high lime content and a strong taste. Most people prefer to drink bottled water.

Protección Solar

Even outside of summer, the Valencian sun can be strong. Use sunscreen, especially if you go to the beach or walk along the Turia.

Ciudad Segura

Valencia is a very safe city. Apply common sense and keep an eye on your belongings in busy areas such as the Central Market or during festivals.
