Valencia's Old Town is the best location to stay and play
The third biggest city in Spain, Valencia is known for a lot of things, the best parties being one of them. This city has something to offer everyone; from the adventurer to honeymooners to senior citizens to teenagers – there is always something to do in Valencia. Here are five things that you can do in this European city.
Go to the Old Quarter. This is the historic center of Valencia, and is definitely steeped in culture. You have to see El Miguelet and the Cathedral. You can also see the Holy Grail. After walking around, you can kick up your feet and relax in one (or two!) of the numerous cafes and bars in the area. Another must do is to visit Barrio del Carmen, where you can enjoy the nightlife.
Culture is something that can be enjoyed in Valencia. There are countless theatres and museums. If you are pressed for time, make sure that you go to the Palau de les Artes and the City of Arts and Sciences. Once you’ve visited these, you can take your pick from the rest of the galleries, theatres, and museums.

Go shopping! A lot of visitors to Valencia shop till they literally drop. From local crafts and products to popular brands such as Mango and Zara, shopaholics find Valencia a haven. The prices are quite affordable so you can get a lot of value for your money.
Bathe in the sun at the beach. Valencia may be a city, but its right next to the Mediterranean Sea. This means that you can spend days on end at the beach, enjoying the white sand and clear waters. Also, you’ll have restaurants and resorts to choose from.
Attend a festival. Valencia is not called a party city for nothing. More than the nightly events, there are countless festivals going on in the city. Time your visit to coincide with Las Fallas, a festival that happens every March. During this festival, every barrio creates a giant head, parades it around, and burns it at the end of the day.
