Following on from yesterday’s post charting some of my Spanish travels the past couple of years, here's a bit of an extension on my time in Valencia.
As mentioned, I spent a little time here in 2020/21 (as well as Alicante and Tenerife) and I plan to base myself in Valencia longer-term. It has also been a bit sporadic for obvious pandemic reasons and all the fun and games that brings.
I discovered a few photos when adding a couple to my previous article so this post will be mainly some of those.
First up a coffee to get us going. These bastards do a tasty cup ;)
The north station, an iconic landmark and transport link. And just happened to capture one of the ubiquitous scooters that get about the place
The even more iconic landmark of the city of arts and sciences. Well, a part of it anyway. Sat towards the bottom of Turia park.
A cheeky beer and telling the tale at a meetup in Turia
Some architecture from a hostel I stayed at in Russafa
Medieval market food festival
Centre from another angle and town hall
The famous Torres de Serranos
Outside St Patrick’s Irish bar
Another nomad meetup in the Turia as night falls
Concert in the main plaza
Day of Valencia celebrations
After the marathon, a well earned rest (them not me ;))
Just a few little snippets of my last couple of visits to this fine city. Some sport, festivals, meetups and various celebrations.
And we haven’t even started on Las Fallas! I’ve got a few shots of last year’s mascletas etc but will save that for another article. The 2021 event was in September but we’re back with the usual March extravaganza this year.
In the coming days I’ll post a few pics from Alicante and look ahead to the crazy time that is one of Valencia’s most famous events - Las Fallas!
