Details of the tour:
Our tour of the Old Town, including the exterior of the Silk Exchange (UNESCO world heritage) and of the Central Market, offers a pleasant cultural walk during which we will visit several squares and the exterior of all the below-mentioned buildings.
If you’re interested in exploring the interior of the Silk Exchange as well, we would be delighted to arrange a longer, customized tour for you that also includes admission to the venue (in this case, please, send us an email to info@valenciainenglish.com – thanks!).
It’s a journey into the heart of the city, among art, history, and timeless wonders!
We will start from Plaza de la Virgen and we will explore the heart of Valencia, its main points of interest, and the most important monuments of the historic center, making several stops along the way, including the lively Central Market, a modernist masterpiece where architecture and daily life blend in an explosion of colors and aromas.
Shortly after, just crossing the square, we will be enchanted by the magnificent Silk Exchange, a symbol of the city’s mercantile power and a Valentian Gothic gem declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1996.
