Estacio del Nord
This is our meeting point and first landmark we will visit. It´s one of the most beautiful train stations in Spain built in modernist architecture.
2
Iglesia de San Agustin
We´ll head to the first restaurant (close by the station) where I´ll tell you about the origin and meaning of tapas. I´ll share recipes and cooking tips. There´s a big surprise awaiting you regarding a rooted local sport. We´ll taste 2 "tapas" (snacks) and a local drink, that can be a soft drink, beer or glass of wine

Placa del Ajuntament
On our way to the second restaurant, we´ll stop at the spectacular Town Hall Square, where I´ll talk about some aspects of the rich history of Valencia (19th-20th century period).

La Lonja de la Seda
Our next stop will be at the iconic Silk Exchange Market, declared World Heritage Site by UNESCO. I´ll talk about the splendour of the city during the 14th-17th centuries and its importance in Europe.

Mercat Central de Valencia
The Central Market is a gem, one of the best examples of Modernism in Valencia, and a wonder for the senses. I´ll share some recommendations for tasting "paella valenciana" and other local delicacies.

Real Parroquia de los Santos Juanes
Santos Juanes Church is the second most important Baroque church after Saint Nicholas Church, known as the Valencian Sixtine Chapel. Both are linked and I will tell visitors about it
