🇪🇸 Where to live in Valencia
Valencia's residential areas range from the dense historic core around the cathedral and Central Market to former villages and fishing quarters that the city grew around. Some are built for walking and café life, others are quieter and residential, and a few sit directly on the beach or along the Turia gardens. Several have a rapid-transit station within a few minutes on foot.
