Many people don’t realize that paella, a traditional Spanish dish, originated in Valencia and is deeply rooted in the region’s culinary culture. The most authentic version is known as “Paella Valenciana,” which typically includes chicken, rabbit, and local green beans, cooked in a large, shallow pan over an open flame. The dish is a symbol of community and celebration, often enjoyed during family gatherings and festivals in the region. Learn more with us at Culture Scout Valencia!

The “Turia” in Valencia refers to the former riverbed of the Turia River, which was diverted after a devastating flood in 1957. The dry riverbed was transformed into the Turia Gardens, a vast urban park that stretches through the city, offering green spaces and sports facilities. It is a beloved recreational area, symbolizing Valencia’s resilience and innovative urban planning. Check out the tile in the last photo that shows the water level at the time of this disastrous flood. You can find other tiles like this throughout the city!

A replica of a barraca that you might have found in the community of Albufera, south of Valencia. It is a traditional Valencian home, which housed fishermen, rice farmers and their families. These small buildings were made out of materials like mulberry or poplar trunks, reeds, mud, and grasses, gathered from the area. This replica is proudly displayed outside El Contraste, a great place for bunuelos & coffee. We love learning authentic Valencian history from the friendly staff there!
