Learn Spanish in Valencia
Learn Spanish in Valencia, Spain's third largest city after Madrid and Barcelona. Valencia has a large population due to its relative size, of approximately 810,000 and over 1 million in the surrounding region. The city's port is one of the biggest in the Mediterranean region, and by handling 20 percent of all Spanish export it is the number one in Spain. The main exports are oranges, ceramic tiles, furniture and textiles. The city and port are the hosts of the America's Cup, the most prestigious Sailing event and regatta in the world. The port was forced to undergo moderations for the event and is now as popular and attractive as ever. The city's architecture is both beautiful and historic with buildings dating back to Roman and Arabic times. The Cathedral was built between the 13th and 15th Centuries and is of Gothic style primarily but also contains Romanesque and Baroque elements. Apart from the cathedral, the gothic Basilica of the Virgin and the 15th Century towers of Serrano and Quart are part of what was once the ancient wall surrounding the city. Valencia has evolved into a major cultural and economic centre with film, music, and theatre featuring prominently. Most intriguing of all is the brand new Çiutat de les Arts i les Ciències (City of Arts and Science) with a futuristic Imax-cinema shaped as a human eye. Thanks to its rich history, it is also a city with an attractive and cosy city centre. Strolling through the bustling streets of the old town centre gives you a real feel of a typical Spanish atmosphere, which is why many people choose to learn Spanish in Valencia. There are many bars and restaurants to visit, both in the new and traditional styles serving an abundance of different cuisine and of course the famous Valencian Paella, which is renowned world wide and is the city's speciality dish.
