Day 1 - Valencia

· 1 min read

We entered the Mediterranean port city of Valencia and started with a bus tour of medieval and modern parts of the city. 14th century towers are just minutes away from modern architecture designed by Santiago Calatrava. We then had a lunch stop by Valencia’s market and finished the day with a lesson on making paella and a walking tour around the city’s cathedral.
