Historical place. You can’t come to Valencia and not visit the Cathedral+Basilica. Every Thursdays you can see the historical “tribunal de les aigües”, they are judges deciding about water.

The beautiful and historic Spanish city of Valencia is a major tourist destination in Europe. While you will love exploring the amazing central market and marine aquarium, there are destinations for the religiously inclined too. In fact, religious or not, you ought to pay a visit to the ancient Cathedral of Valencia or Catedral de Valencia. Located in the El Carmen region the 13th century church was built at the site of a Roman temple and an ancient mosque. The structure is most impressive and adds to the cityscape’s beauty. There are 3 entrances at Catedral de Valencia built in different styles from the Romanesque to the Baroque. The oldest one is Romanesque while the Gothic style apostle door is perhaps the most awe inspiring. Its clock tower, Torre del Micalet, was set up in 1381 and you may actually climb to its top section via a spiral staircase. From the top, you can enjoy an amazing view of the city. The exterior of this cathedral is an amalgamation of a few architectural styles. One of the most interesting items you may want to explore is the Holy Chalice at the cathedral. It is preserved in a chapel and attracts a large number of pilgrims. While some of its amazing artifacts were stolen during war, you can still witness some amazing paintings and artwork. Nearby is the beautiful 17th century church, Real Basilica. An audio guide is available for visitors in various languages, including German, French, English and Spanish. You can reach the La Seu neighborhood where the Valencia Cathedral and Real Basilica are located by the metro. Entry fees are nominal and you can visit on all days of the week.
