Description
With almost 2000 years of history, the city of Valencia has been evolving to offer you a unique historical center that we will discover on two wheels.
Starting with its beginnings, the city was founded by the Romans who settled in Valencia in 138 BC. Calling the place "Valentia". Today's Valencia began on a small river island that provided all the necessary resources for the construction of a prosperous city.
Why is Valencia's old town so charming?
As we mentioned before, Valencia is a well preserved 2000 year old city and on this tour Skybikes will show you many of the most iconic monuments.
Romanesque, Baroque and Gothic elements grace the historical center of a city that has all the required characteristics to be one of the finest cities in the world to live in. Its streets full of life and its numerous corners in which to taste the famous Tapas, are mixed with the history of the squares.
One of the best known spots is the charming Plaza de la Virgen, which was built by the Romans who first inhabited the city, later becoming the Visigoth Cathedral and after the fall of the Visigoth empire, the Great Mosque during the 500 years of Muslim occupation.
Since the Christian reconquest in 1238, the famous Plaza de la Virgen, offers magnificent views of the current Cathedral of Valencia. With the picturesque fountain in the center of the square, it is the perfect place to pause and share the most beautiful photos of the city.
If in just one square, we are able to show you almost 2000 years of history, imagine what we can show you if you choose this tour specially designed for you. If you have any special wishes, please let us know. SkyBikes is happy to customize this tour according to the needs of its clients.
