Valencia. There you been? A charming seaside town, typically English, very lively and fun solar. Fortunately reached by Ryanair, budget airline (www.ryanair.com ) do not even need to reach the city by bus, because the company landed in the only airport in the city. You will pass a different weekend without spending a fortune. In Spring is ideal. I have been there in 2007, the year in which Valencia was also home to the American's Cup, World Cup of sailing.

We were to find a dear friend who lived them its Erasmus, and there is no better person who can advise me in writing this post!
Where to stay in Valencia? The choices, of course, abound. Erica recommends a hostel very nice and very cheap: Nest. There are 2 Red and Purple. They offer accommodation in both classical hostel dormitories and private rooms (about € 20 per night) (www.nesthostelsvalencia.com). pockets for more "rich", I found excellent reviews for this three-star Confortel Aqua 3 (about 60 € per night) (www.confortelhoteles.com/en/hotel-aqua3-valencia) located in the center near the city of Science.

Valencia is the third city of Spain, was founded 2000 years ago by the Romans, is the watershed between the Catalan and Andalusian culture. The old town is rich in monuments, wide boulevards surrounding the old quarter called C Armen which is characterized by Gothic mansions and elegant patios. The past remains unchanged, but the city's skyline has changed over the years through a series of wonderful public buildings designed by architects such as Norman Foster, David Chipperfield and Valencian Santiago Calatrava. Calatrava is famous for having designed from what is called the Ciudad de las artes y la ciencias, the city of arts and sciences , visited by many tourists every day.

Calatrava, even before this project was completed the metro station Alameda, a work of ' art, and one of Europe's most elegant bridges on the dry bed of the River Turia. This river has been wonderfully transformed into a walk, a long narrow park that runs through the city and from where you can admire it. Beautiful port district, completely renovated during the 2007 America's Cup, where you can find excellent fish restaurants, and if the weather permits, take a bath in the big beach Malvarosa . Famous throughout the world is a typical Valencian Paella:

rice and meat, fish and fresh vegetables. It is with all these ingredients that is forged typical of this region. Typical test is also famous Montaditos : paninetti stuffed with anything!

Valencia offers, in addition to restaurants, even a enviable nightlife to the two major English cities. From aperitif offered by the many local Calle de los Caballos , just behind the cathedral, restaurants, a beer and followed by dancing into the night in one of the many trendy clubs. You are absolutely welcome to try the famous Agua de Valencia . A cocktail made with orange juice, Cointreau, Vodka and Cava is English sparkling wine . The more populated areas of bars, pubs, clubs Canovas, the Barrio del Carmen Like the Roman Trastevere, rich and fashionable alternative clubs, and the University Ciudat , especially along Avenida de Blasco Ibañez and in the adjacent street to Plaza de xuquer . It would be fascinating and very distinctive, you can visit Valencia during the festival of San Juan (June 24) when tens of thousands of people spend the night in playa de la Malvarosa around a huge bonfire or during the festival of Fallas ( March 12 to 19) which is celebrated in honor of San Jose. From early March to begin the daily fireworks displays and parades of fail (typical costume Valenciano). The festival ends the night of March 19 where you burn these Fallas, huge papier-mache statues created by local artists, creating a multitude of pyres that illuminate each Square city.

Well although there are already felt like I was coming back! Thanks to Eric for his advice and ... book J
