Valencia

By the Mediterranean coast, Valencia is the starting point of the Levant Route. A city that combines the avant-garde of the City of Arts and Sciences with a historic old town of a thousand years.

Discover Valencia

Valencia, the third largest city in Spain, is a magnificent starting point for the Camino de Levante, an historic Jacobean route that connects the Mediterranean with the Via de la Plata. Starting the pilgrimage in Valencia is to immerse oneself in a city of contrasts, where futuristic architecture of the City of Arts and Sciences coexists with a centuries-old historic center. The pilgrim can begin their journey at the Cathedral of Valencia, which according to tradition guards the Holy Grail of the Last Supper, adding a deep spiritual dimension to the start of the route. Before leaving, it is essential to explore the Central Market, a jewel of modernism, the Silk Exchange, a World Heritage Site, and the ancient course of the Turia River, now an immense garden. Valencia offers excellent infrastructure and world-renowned cuisine, with paella as its star dish. It's a start to pilgrimage that bids farewell to the traveler with the light of the Mediterranean and the promise of a long journey through the heart of Spain.
