Valencia, Spain - A Remarkable Travel Experience
Discover the Charm of Valencia
Nestled on the eastern coast of Spain, Valencia is a city steeped in history dating back to 137 B.C., when it was known as Valentia. The city's transformation into a modern cultural hub, boasting stunning architecture, museums, aquariums, and Imax cinemas, reached a global audience when it hosted the America’s Cup in 2007. Valencia's rich tapestry is woven from the influences of Romans, Arabs, Catholic Monarchs like Ferdinand and Isabel, the Franco dictatorship, and the democratic Spain of today, all contributing to its vibrant present and promising future.
Modern Marvels in a Historic Setting
Since the 1970s, Valencia has grown as a center for important congresses. With the addition of the avant-garde Music Auditorium and Congress Hall in 1988, located in the former Turia River bed, the city has further cemented its reputation. Nearby, a striking collection of four white modern buildings forms one of Europe’s largest cultural complexes.
