Overall Guide : Don't miss the Oceanografico. The aquarium is truly spectacular, you'll stand there open-mouthed. I don't recommend it if you're only there for one day because it takes about three hours to get around and that would leave you little time ... Leggi tutto to visit the rest of the city. Valencia is lovely, though.
