4.5Plaza del Ayuntamiento(2.088 reviews) - Splendid architecture Points of Interest & Landmarks • Government Buildings
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..
4.5Miguelete(2.017 reviews) - Worth the climb in the end! Wednesday: 10:00 AM - 6:30 PM Spent < 1 hour Points of Interest & Landmarks
After visiting the plaza and going inside Valencia Cathedral we decide to queue for the bell tower and make the 207 step climb to the top. Luckily we were at the front of the queue when we went up so had a bit of a head start taking the spiral stair case which does feel like its never ending and is quite the exercise so I would warn those who might struggle with the challenge. Once arriving at the top we were amazed by the 360 views of the city with plenty of photo opportunity's. There is a traffic light system to know when you can go back down as there is just the one staircase and at 2 euros each it it definitely a must!See more..

4.5Placa del Castell(1.486 reviews) - Benidorm old town Points of Interest & Landmarks • Historic Walking Areas
The balcony still has its beauty and charm. It was excavated last year as it was supposed to be hiding some secret ruins but none of any significance were found. So there are glass viewing plates which are safe to stand on and you can see clay and sandstone 9ft deep but apart from that it's just as it was with every blue and white tile back to it's original glory.

This place is such a must, I loved it! It is aesthetically beautiful with a contrast of blue and white. I loved it when cities add aesthetically beautiful places so that we can take poetic photos. It is a magnet for tourists. You have amazing views of the sea from there. Must visit on a sunny day! Might be tricky to take photos without people but depending on the time of the day and your patience, you can manage it.See more..

4.0Mercat Central de Castelló(376 reviews) - Avenues of fine foods Wednesday: 8:00 AM - 2:30 PM Points of Interest & Landmarks • Flea & Street Markets • Farmers Markets
A lovely building that was unveiled in 1949 houses the voluminous market. This followed decades of it residing in a couple of sheds that were then replaced by the current edifice. Bright and clean within, there’s a plethora of foods available on stalls and counters stretching a distance. We visited just before 10am and it wasn’t at all busy at that hour.See more..

4.5Morella Defensive Walls(293 reviews) - Very nice walls around old town Points of Interest & Landmarks
Morella defensive walls surrounds all old town of the city and it is located in the upper part of it as usual. From outside, you can see walls and they are very nice. Also, probably the most beautiful views of the wall was from the castle, specially in february-march, when you can see almost tree in bloom. In some locations of the wall, it is possible go up and walk on it, so it is very nice, because you can see views of the surroundings and mountains, but some place are not too safes. It is necessary put safety barriers, so be careful, if you go there. Also, it is possible enter in St Miquel Towers, uno of the gates of the wall and go up to see views and learn about the history of the place. Very interesting.See more..
