    Lying on Spain's southeastern coast, Valencia is the third largest city in Spain. Famed for its landmark, the City of Arts and Sciences, Valencia has gracefully integrated the city's past and the present.?

    Apart from the modern design of the iconic City of Arts and Sciences, more than 2000 years of history has also left the mark in this important historical city.?

    A visit to Old Town's Plaza de la Virgen is a must-see site for travelers. Turia Fountain lies at the heart of this square, which has drawn many travelers to take stunning photos.

    In addition, there are many bars and cafes in the plaza where you could grab something to drink at any hour of the day and soak up the atmosphere. Wandering around Valencia's old town is simply a pleasure to throw away your daily trouble.?

    Savor traditional cuisine: Sherry wine + Paella?

    Only a few things can beat Sherry as a pre-meal aperitif. Sherry wine, also known as "Jerez," is a serious drink with centuries of tradition and history, which originated in the country of Spain.?

    When you travel to Spain, Paella is the must-eat dish for diners from around the world. Nothing is better than pairing a glass of sherry wine with Paella.

    Tips: We suggest you taste the authentic Paella in Spain's third-largest city Valencia as Paella originates from there. It contains different combinations of meat, such as sausage, chicken and snails.?

    Flamenco Dance: A feast to the eyes, a banquet for the mind?

    If you have enough time for your stay in Spain, then Seville is one of the must-visit places for travelers. As Spain's fourth largest city, it might not be as famous as cities like Madrid and Barcelona, but it has more to offer and has been marked as the hidden gems of Spain. With the unique culture and architectures, Seville has been named the best city to travel in 2018 by Lonely Planet.?

    Seville is the jump-off point for other fantastic destinations across Andalucía. Before you leave this city, don't forget to watch a Flamenco dance show at El Patio Sevillano. There is no doubt that Flamenco is the most famous style of dance and music in Spain.?

    Originated in the Spanish region of Andalucía in the 18th century and is closely linked to gypsy culture presented during that time, Flamenco is dubbed Spain's quintessence. In 2010, UNESCO declared Flamenco as one of the masterpieces of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity.

    Tips: You could book the Flamenco dance show at FlamencoTickets.com as no booking fees are required and all payments are encrypted with SSL technology.?
