Car hire Valencia - Spain information
Valencia is a port city on
Spain’s east coast. With a population of more than 800,000 it is the country’s third-largest city after
Madrid and
Barcelona and has a population density of almost 6,000 per km². For about one year Valencia was the seat of the Republican government during the Spanish Civil War. The city is also very popular with tourists. There are a lot of historic and modern buildings, which certainly makes a city tour by hired car worthwhile. The most important of them are the Cathedral and Lonja de la Seda, one of the most significant Gothic structures in Europe. A good example of modern architecture is "L'Hemisfèric", the 3D cinema that has the shape of an eye. With its many museums and theatres Valencia is also worth a trip for enthusiasts of art and culture. The city also features Europe’s largest aquarium with many species from all of the world’s oceans.
