Thank you to Juan, Maya and Carl for your kind comments and extra information; I hear that being there for Las Fallas is something special. I’ll have to return then
Liliane and Dave and Deb, I hope you do manage to check Valencia out on your next trip to Spain; will enjoy reading about your experiences there. Terry, I hope you make it back there very soon!

Thanks to everyone for adding your thoughts.

We were just in Spain last month and feel that we need to see more of the entire country. Valencia being one of them. Thanks for letting us know about it. When we go back, we will make sure to check it out!

Great article on Valencia! So many people don’t consider Valencia and choose Barcelona & Madrid instead.

Maybe we should keep the wonderful Valencia a secret

When in Valencia if you’re wanting to get away from it all, check out a wonderful spanish village called Bocairent. You will be impressed as it’s absolutely beautiful!!

If you get a chance you may want to visit Valencia during Las Fallas–an amazing festival.

Mei, you should certainly take your husband there if he doesn’t take you there first

Adventure King, of course, the legendary paella. We were indeed treated to this on a couple of occasions. Even when it came as the 28th course of a meal it was still delicious.

John, thank you. You’re too kind (as well as being a brilliant photographer)

Thank you to all for your comments.

It’s worth mentioning that Valencia has the best paella in Spain. I’m more of a tapas addict myself but Spanish foodies (i.e. the whole country) pay homage to Valencia as a mecca for paella.

I like your photos, they give a tantalising glimpse of the city.
