Audio guide
Welcome to the Albufera, Spain's largest lake and the cradle of paella. Ten kilometres from the city, this natural park gathers lake, rice fields, pine groves and dunes. Here the traditional boats glide, fishermen cast their nets at dawn and, at dusk, the water turns gold and pink. Hop on a boat, listen to the silence broken by herons, try arròs al forn or all i pebre in El Palmar and discover why Valencia and rice are inseparable. Spain's most famous dish begins right here.
