5 Fun Facts About Valencia

• Home of Paella: Valencia is the birthplace of paella, one of Spain's most famous dishes. Traditional Valencian paella is made with chicken, rabbit, and sometimes snails, rather than the seafood version that many people associate with the dish!
• City of Arts and Sciences: Valencia is known for its futuristic architecture, especially the Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias (City of Arts and Sciences). This massive cultural and architectural complex includes a science museum, an opera house, an oceanarium, and a planetarium!
• Las Fallas Festival: Every March, Valencia celebrates ‘Las Fallas’, a vibrant and explosive festival where massive sculptures made of wood and papier-mâché are paraded through the streets and eventually burned in a fiery spectacle! It’s one of Spain's biggest and most colourful festivals.
• Holy Grail Legend: Valencia’s cathedral claims to house the ‘Holy Grail’, the cup believed to have been used by Jesus during the Last Supper. Many visitors come to see this ancient relic, which is kept in a special chapel inside the cathedral!
• ‍The River That’s Not There: Valencia's main river, the Turia, was diverted in 1957 after severe flooding. The old riverbed has been transformed into the Turia Gardens, a beautiful 9 km green space filled with walking paths, sports areas, and attractions, including the City of Arts and Sciences.
