Touring Valencia with a Car Rental

Having been ruled by several civilisations over the years including Romans, Moors and Christians, Valencia has seen many architecture styles come and go, leaving the city blessed with a long list of fantastic historical sites. This combined with stunning modern buildings and monuments, creates a truly unique city with great contrasts and something for everyone.

To get an insight into the early days of modern Valencia, drive your rental car into the city centre and explore the old quarter, made up of narrow laneways, and preserved historical buildings. Here you wil find one of the most treasured buildings in the city, Valencia Cathedral, which dates back to the 13th century. Be sure to visit the bell tower, also known as Miguel's Tower, which is attached to the cathedral and climb the many stairs to the top from where you will get a fantastic view of the city.

Also located in the historical centre is Mercat Central, the main city markets where you can try some great local produce and shop with the locals. Just opposite here you can also visit la Lonja, a 15th century gothic building which was once one of the biggest silk markets in the region and has been restored to a brilliant condition.

Jump in your car hire and drive east of the city centre, where you will find one of the most modern complexes in this part of the world, Ciutat de les Arts I les Ciencies, The City of Arts and Sciences. The "city within a city" truly has something for everyone, including a planetarium, stunning gardens, a science museum, and also the largest aquarium in Europe, perfect for those travelling with children! And when you have seen enough of the sights, drive a short distance north or south of here and take your pick from one of the many beaches, perfect to cool off and unwind, especially during the extreme heat during summer.
