Why Valencia . . .Valencia - the Orange Blossom CoastProbably the best all year round climate in Spain, boasting on average 320 days of sunshine per year. The Valenciano people are renowned for their warmth, friendliness and hospitality. With over 350km of coastline, the Valencian region offers some of the finest beaches in Spain. Further inland lie the famed citrus groves and vineyards of Valencia, surrounded by spectacular mountain ranges. Throughout this beautiful landscape you will find numerous picturesque towns and villages, where traditional Spanish life and culture continue to thrive. Property in this area of Valencia represents outstanding value-for-money - sometimes upto half of an equivalent home on the saturated costas. However, property prices are predicted to rise steadily over the next few years - so whether you are looking for a permanent home, holiday villa or investment property, Valencia offers excellent opportunities. The City of ValenciaSpain's third city after Madrid and Barcelona, Valencia has a population of 750,000. Situated on the Mediterranean coast, Valencia is a vibrant and exciting city with a heavy mix of night life and culture. The former river-bed running through the city has been transformed into a long, twisting park with playing fields, trees, a lagoon, bicycle and walking routes, the city's principal concert hall, and the City of Arts and Science. City of Arts and ScienceThis enormous leisure complex, one of the world's outstanding millennium projects, covers the arts, the sciences, and wildlife, extending over several spectacular buildings, with a wide expanse of gardens and water features. The Old TownOne of the delights of Valencia is the accessible 'old quarter' steeped in history and tradition. Strolling without any particular destination, you will enjoy the atmosphere and mystery - leafy plazas, exquisite courtyards, tiny museums, and grand houses. Take your time as there are plenty of no less inspiring bars and restaurants on route. |
