The palatial Ayuntamiento (Town Hall) of Valencia dominates the square, and its bells chime out the hours. Surrounding the plaza are other buildings from the city's golden age, such as the Correos (the main post office). In the center of the plaza, a fountain is surrounded by flower stalls with all the colors, sizes, varieties imagineable. This is a good starting point from which to visit Valencia's old quarter or today's most fashionable shops. See more..

Wednesday: 8:30 AM - 8:30 PM Government Buildings

Once upon a time, letters and telegraphs were the way the world communicated. The transmittal of vital information would have taken place here. This is actually more of a Palace of Communications and the winged figures at the top are ever-present reminders of the time when mail and telegraph were king. The winged figures hold bolts of electricity or letters in their extended hands. And there is a metal tower/cage more than 98 feet tall on the very top. It is a combination of Baroque, Neoclassical, and Modernistic. Today, it is owned by the tax collector and is awaiting a new use. See more..
