Four days in Valencia

 

Imagine, my family visited and spent four days here with me. In these days I avoided the school neighborhood and instead tried to spend my time with them, which I think is an excusable reason. I think in all this time we have been able to visit the more essential things that I am now telling you.

On the first day, we went around the city center. We were in TORRES DE SERRANOS, in the LONJA DE LA SEDA, (The Lonja de la Seda is a late Valencian Gothic-style civil building, that is a large lavishly decorated space supported by gorgeous twisted columns. La Lonja, where the merchants work out contracts) and of course the CATHEDRAL OS VALENCIA (Alternatively known as Saint Mary's Cathedral is the Roman Catholic parish church in Valencia. Although there are several styles of construction on the catedral because it has been rebuilt or added to it several times, this is basically the Gothic building) and finally the Central market of Valencia. Furthermore, the evening could not have ended with anything other than consuming the local landmark, Paella. 

 


 

On the second day we were on a stadium tour at the request of my brother, and then in the afternoon despite the light wind, we also took a dip in the sea in October.

 


We started the morning of our next day in a café close to us and from there we headed to the main sights of the city, the City Of Arts and Sciences Monuments and the València Aquarium Oceanografic and Hemisféric.

If we walk around all these buildings, it will puts out an entire day to see everything.

 


On our last day, which was actually a local feast, we also had no time to get bored (on the 9th of October every year, the people of Valencia celebrate the national day of their autonomous region). We took part in the parade and got acquainted with other Spanish foods and drinks.
In the old town, we chose a cozy, little blue and white mosaic tiled place, where we ordered Churros, (it also known in Hungary as Spanish donut) and Horchata, because Paella is not the only typical Valencian product we wanted to try out (it is a drink that looks like milk and is made of chufas, which are tiger nuts. Attention the drink contains too much sugar I recommend it for the really sweet tooth!)
