Valencia is the third biggest city in Spain, but one of the least visited by tourists. This is mainly due to it being more of a working city. However,during the summer, Valencia is known for its beach during the day and the clubs and bars at night. One key thing to remember though if you want to partake in the night life is that it doesnt start until really late. If you get there too early (before about 1am) you will think that Valencia has the worst night life ever, as you will be the only one there. As for the dining experience in Valencia, a visitor have to be sure to try the most well known Spanish dish, Paella. The Valencia regions is the home of Paella and makes the dish like no other place. Paella is a rice dish that does not compare to anything else, but if one have to be describe it in comparison to something it would be a stir fry similar to fried rice with a wide variety of seafood, chicken, rabbit and vegetables. Es deliciosa!

Another absolutely amazing culturally rich experience of the Valenica Region is Las Fallas, the fires. Las Fallas is a 5 day celebration of St. Joseph, the patron saint of carpenters. This is an absolutely fascinating and overwhelming experience. You have constant firecrackers, flowers, parties, crowded street and much much more!

If you are in town on the last day of the celebration, you can join in on the many block parties throughout the city. All the neighboorhoods cooks make their special paella, and dont be surprised if they ask you to prueba, to try, their dish and comment on whos is the best. Be carefull if you take the challenge, Valencianos take pride in their paella.

Durning Las Fallas the city glows with lighted streets and colorful ninots around every corner. The ninots, paper mache statues made of wood, cardboard, and plaster, are as tall as buildings. One way to grasp the local humor is to read (or have a Valenciano translate for you) the satirical inscriptions on the ninots. At the end of the festival, these statues are burned down at midnight in what is called la Crema. As the beautiful statues are lit ablaze, the massive crowd stares in awe. Be careful you dont get singed with falling debris. While most of the statues go up in flames, the ones chosen as the very best in both the open and childrens sections are reprieved and kept in the excellent Fallas museum.

Anyone in search of the Holy Grail need not look any further than the Catedral de Valencia settled on Plaza de la Renia, near the city center. Vistors can view the inwell known chalice encased within the cathedrals gothic structure.

If you are taking a day trip to the cathedral, make a stop at the Mercado Central nearby. One of the oldest in Europe, The mercado is 25,000 square feet of shopping heaven. You can find everything from Jamon Serrano (cured ham) to live eels.

The creation of La Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias with its magical 21st century architecture is intended to assist the city attract tourists outside of fallas time in March.
