    Audio guide

    Welcome to Valencia. You are in a Mediterranean city with three thousand years of history and a gaze on the future. Here the Romans founded Valentia, the Arabs planted the first orange trees of the huerta and the kings of Aragon built the Cathedral. Today, Valencia is light, sea, food and contemporary architecture. In this audio guide I will walk you through its essential corners: the old town, the Central Market, the Turia Gardens, the City of Arts, the beaches and the Albufera. Walk slowly, look up, try a cortado coffee on a square, and listen. Valencia tells itself softly.
