Paella only for lunch. - Valencia
Paella only for lunch.

Paella origins from Valencia so you have to try it here. Just remember that you have to have it for lunch never dinner (some places they serve it for dinner as well …but its braking with the local tradition). You can eat it direct from the pan or take it to your plate. Enjoy

9th of October - Valencia
9th of October

October 9 is a special day in Valencia. Its that day where the Moors was rejected from the city in 1238. The city of Valencia celebrates the event by dressing up as Moorish knights and belly dancers parading true the inner city. At midnight it all ends in a climax with a grand firework display.
