Stunning
Valencia is justifiably famous for it's great architecture ,walking around this part of town I chanced upon this beautiful building and what a great find. This palace building is simply stunning ,the original building dates from the 15th century ,built for the Rabassa De Perellis family who acquired barony of Dos Aguas in 1496 and were elevated to marquisate in 1699 by King Carlos II. The mid 1700's saw a massive renovation of this building which gave the building the magnificent Rococo style architecture we see today. I was simply blown away by this building ,loved the facade ,the amazing entrance ,the overall look of this building ,it's a building I highly recommend you check out if you're in the area and easy to locate along Calle Poeta Querol.

Lavish Architecture
This is a most beautiful building inside and out. The exterior is a work of art in itself and the interior does not fall far behind. This is a nice museum with some beautiful exhibits. The porcelain on display is beautiful and the estate rooms are gorgeous. A visit will take from 45 to 60 min depending on your pace and interest. Entry fee is €3.00 sold onsite cash or credit card. Don’t miss I this one.

Two for One. Period Mansion plus National Ceramics Museum
We love visiting these old majestic houses to see how these people lived and this Palacio del Marques de Dos Aguas definitely had style. The museum is both the beautiful Palacio plus it also hosts the National Museum of Ceramics. Entrance fee €3, so well worth it. “Text guide” is downloadable via QR code but no audio guide is available. This was very disappointing. All the displays in each of the rooms are only in Spanish and Valenciano. They should really put additional displays in additional languages including English as these are a lot easier read than trying to find it on your phone text guide.
