]]> Safely tucked away on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea, Valencia is one of Spain’s most beautiful cities that everyone should visit at least once in a lifetime. It’s an especially great pick for family trips since it happens to be home to several kid-friendly attractions.

City of Arts and Sciences

This futuristic complex is Valencia’s top tourist attraction and it will keep your kids entertained for an entire day. You can find a planetarium, an oceanographic park, and an interactive museum on its premises and spend countless hours exploring them with your family.

The Fallas Museum

The Fallas Festival is a very popular cultural event in Valencia. Papier-mâché sculptures known as ninots are displayed all around the city whenever it takes place, only to be burnt at the very end. Some of the sculptures have been saved over the years, and they’re now displayed at this museum.

Gulliver Park

No family trip is complete without a visit to local parks, and one of the most kid-friendly attractions of this kind is located near the City of Arts and Sciences. Inspired by Jonathan Swift’s book Gulliver’s Travels, this whimsical park features a huge sculpture of the titular character that children can climb and slide on.

]]> The Mediterranean jewel of Valencia, Spain is without a doubt one of the most fascinating and busiest cities that you can visit in southern Europe. While attractions like the City of Arts and Sciences and the Central Market offer plenty to do, you might be looking to check out something else in the region if you’re there on a trip.

Why not make time to visit at least one of these great day trip destinations while in Valencia?

Xativa

Just a 50-minute train ride south of Valencia is the city of Xativa, whose beautiful centuries-old castle towers over the city and is definitely its top attraction. The quiet, medieval streets and buildings of the city are also a sight to be seen, with interesting monuments such as Pope Alexander VI’s birth home hidden.

Requena

Do you love wine? If so, a day trip to Requena is a must for you if you’re visiting Valencia. Located in the interior of the province, this small town with roots as a Moorish fortress is now the heart of the Utiel-Requena DO where excellent red wines are produced.

Sagunto

Roman history buffs should make time to visit Sagunto, just a short 40-minute jaunt away from the center of Valencia. This small city contains the remains of Sagunto Castle, which has both Roman and Moorish history. A partially-restored Roman amphitheater also features some of its millennia-old original parts.

Valencia’s Mercat Central, a public food market which was built between 1914 and 1928 smack dab in the center of the city, is both an architecture and a food lover’s paradise. Why?

Well, this market is one of the most stunning examples of Valencian Art Nouveau, a turn of the 20th century architectural style which put a regional twist on the larger movement which was occurring throughout Europe.

Multi-colored tile motifs, iron and glass, and raised domes are the most striking elements which visitors to this 8,000 square meter beauty will find.

In addition to its size and architectural beauty, the food itself sold within the market is also worth checking out. Vendors sell local products such as fresh tomatoes and vegetables, seafood caught in the nearby Mediterranean Sea, and dishes containing the local variety of rice.

Whether you’re a food lover, an architecture lover, or simply someone who is looking for something to do on a trip to Valencia, you absolutely cannot miss this stunning site.
