Valencia

“Valencia is a pure Mediterranean city; it is a city like Naples or Palermo, like Rome a little bit. Walking in the old town has a little bit of the flavor of the old city of Rome.”
― Santiago Calatrava
In Just a Few Words
Valencia offers beautiful Mediterranean beaches, the lush Turia Gardens for biking and walking, and a lively old town (Barrio del Carmen) filled with history, restaurants, and nightlife. Valencia’s highlights include the futuristic City of Arts and Sciences, a striking complex with museums, an IMAX cinema, and Europe’s largest aquarium; the historic Silk Exchange (La Lonja de la Seda), a UNESCO World Heritage site showcasing Gothic architecture; and the Central Market, a vibrant hub for fresh produce and local delicacies.

Valencia is ideal for those who ...
* … want to experience a dynamic mix of history, culture, and modern innovation.
* … enjoy being close to the Mediterranean while taking their Spanish courses.
Not so great for those who ...
* … prefer a small city vibe.
* … who expect a large, diverse city as it is a midsize city.
