Valencia Spain

We thoroughly enjoyed this large city! the architecture of the many old buildings is remarkable? Valencia more recently has become well known for the Formula 1 street race and also the previous America's Cup races were held in the harbour.
Our excursion today took us the the City Market which is probably one of the best markets we have seen. As market freaks we have lots of experience, some of the photos depict the lovely presentation of the goods they sell.
A two hour walking tour took us to the Cathedral which we did not enter but rather walked around it vast perimeter. Santa Catalina Square was another interesting place we saw the Santa Catania Tower with its unique construction mostly built of marble.
Our visit ended with a very brief visit to The Science and Arts buildings which are truly amazing.
Unfortunately twenty minutes is not enough time to see its benefits but the construction of the building with three floors of Exhibits and different games etc is worth another visit in the future.
We loved Valencia and hope to comeback another day some time.
