Valencia is one of the best cities to visit in Spain with a great city beach, incredible architecture, food that will make you want to eat for days, a mercado central you will spend hours exploring, and so much more! A great place to learn how to make paella as well. However, there are things you will love and there are things you may not like. So here are our best and worst parts of visiting Valencia, Spain

I am a native Valencian and though I mostly agree about the things you said, I would recommend you visit the smaller towns around Valencia to get a more local feel. Recently I have seen a TON of english speaking foreigners either visiting or living here for a bit, so it is becoming a sort of international melting pot. Which is definetly nice, but most of the 'typical valencian' stuff you see in the city are touristy traps. Try out smaller towns like El Saler, Xàtiva, Sueca, etc, to get to actually see local culture.

I don't remember any bad smell and the "siesta" as he says happens in all Spain, Italy etc. It's simply a break in the middle of the day and as compensation shops are open until a lot later. In UK all closes at 17:00 except big stores.

@@mantra536 what I mean they close for eating. Many people don't take any siesta but in many areas of south europe shops close in the middle of the day temporally. If the people choose to take a siesta or not is secondary (most never do). My point, the pause is not for siesta, is for eating. By shops I mean small and traditional shops.

I spent a year living in Valencia and it is an absolutely incredible city! I cannot recommend it highly enough. I never ran out of things to do, and it was so nice to see so many places that I remember from my time there. As someone who has been all over Spain, nowhere beats Valencia for paella, horchata, orange juice, or Agua de Valencia! As a young person who lived in Valencia, I also have to agree with Mark that the nightlife is pretty great. It's simply incredible and I'm so glad that the Wolters made their way there!

We purchased a flat in Valencia 3 years ago! The city has so much to offer and you hit it all….climate, affordability, beach, fantastic cuisine/restaurant scene, authenticity…still feels like authentic old Spain, not as touristic as Barcelona or Madrid. Regarding the homeless in the Turia park…it seems as though there was a high increase right after Covid started. Maybe more people struggling with surviving financially during this crisis. Planning to return for Fallas!

@@kathrinscharrer3923 true but unless you keep yourself isolated in the more residential neighborhoods you are always going to run into the hoards of tourists, particularly in Barcelona. That has been my experience. However even when you are in the more touristic areas of Valencia it still feels like you are surrounded by more locals than in Madrid or Barcelona. It’s a smaller city so one would naturally expect that.

@@contaalt4742 Ok. In Madrid it is not as bad yet. The most important thing is getting rid of this tourist flat renting. Tourists should stay in hotels or hostels, period. Flats should be rented for minimum 6 months. That way locals can live there and neighborhoods do not turn into film sets. I am German, but I am not a tourist. I have been living in Madrid since 1987. In Madrid, if you live in Hortaleza or Barrio del Pilar there isn't a single tourist ( yet). If you work where office spaces are, there are also no tourists apart from the ones that visit the football stadium. I never go downtown because I look quite German and I do not fancy being treated like a tourist in my own city.

One thing I noticed is that although we're in January, the video looks like it's not from this year, just because the square you were recording in front of the cathedral is now being reconstructed because it's gonna be a pedestrian zone as the one they made in the city hall square... Though is a small detail, it doesn't change the fact that your video besides being very informative, is quite accurate and I liked that. Hope you visit this beautiful city again!

Additionally, Valencia has awesome street art, some of the best I've ever seen, visit the northern half of the Old Town to see that. Be sure to climb up the cathedral bell tower, incredible views! Yes, drink Agua de Valencia...it's like the mimosa of your dreams. Oh and that park you're standing in was under renovation in September, I'm jealous you saw it 😄

That is my city and I'm so proud of it. Now I'm living in Madrid for work and I miss it very much. PD. 'siesta' is a break we take AFTER lunch and only if you are not working so mostly on weekends. We eat later than the rest of the world (around 13.3-15 h and 21-22h) and that has nothing to do to the siesta, it is our way of living. If at 12h there is nothing open is simply because no one in Spain will eat at that time ;)

Barcelona is fine although extremly pricy for what you get as a travelling experience. You can sense the influence of Spanish culture here as well. Only thing is the locals are very very very proud of being Catalanes which is cool but gets a bit annoying since they make soooo much emphasis to make their point even among themselves. Kind of funny in a freaky way. Tourist seem not very appreciated here is my point.

Must say I like it better than Madrid or Barcelona. Less history and art or museums but Valencia is so spacious! It is so FAMILY FRIENDLY, so many things to do, people are kind and we feel safer than we did in Barcelona. And coz we arrived last few days of August, 80% of the city is still closed and on vacation. And the Mediterranean sunset at Malvarosa, wow! Will definitely come back in November.

Hi. I'm from Valencia. Is not really siesta, people close shop during lunch time 2-3 pm to go home an eat. But we don't sleep, that's already a myth. Another thing is during summer, when it is too hot is almost impossible to go out during afternoon, that's why everything is closed. Is more a weather related thing. Thanks for your video! ;)

Right, but the heat is siesta-related whether that means having a nap or just a break is up to the individual.

Valencia is such an amazing place. I loved the food, the people and eating oranges that just kept randomly dropping from street trees 😄. I was there in January and people were using coats at 22C. Coming from a -40C Canadian winter it was summer for me. I got intrigued Valencians pointing out my T-shirt and shorts, like I was crazy or something 😄

those oranges are not normal oranges that you find in the supermarkets, they are decorative! they are altered in a lab and then planted so they don't fall so easily like normal oranges, and the taste is not good either

I love how you never know what video is going to pop up on this channel. If there were a couple of videos about Peru, you wouldn't be surprised if the next one was Ecuador or Chile. However, it's like Spain, Washington DC, Thailand, Cuba, etc. (not that this was an actual order you made, but equally as random)

Great video! Yo vivo en tu pais. (I suppose you are Americano) Pero un dia ire a visitar España. You or some other americano should take advantage of the siesta and open a biz that is open during that time, I would! Boy, have I become an Americano!

Valencia third capital of Spain with 1 million inhabitants. It has a historic center. Fine sand beaches in Mediterranean waters 15 minutes from the center of the capital. Airport and numerous Bus and Metro lines as well as "AVE" railway station in the center of the City (high-speed train). There are highways that connect Madrid-Barcelon-Alicante. All the services you have are very good. A city with very pleasant winter temperatures. The City is all flat, there are many bike lanes throughout the City. Many restaurants and terraces to eat. With services and very affordable prices. It has 10 kilometers of parks and gardens that run through the entire city (former river channel). As well as The City of Arts-Sciences (futurist). It will like you.
