The Camp del Turia region in Valencia, Spain, situated in the middle of an area of natural beauty, is just a step away from the capital city and the beaches, and has become an ideal and enviable place to live the whole year round.

     With all the services, supermarkets, entertainment centres, cinemas, medical centres, golf courses, sports centres, etc. Camp del Turia offers a high quality of life with all the advantages of living outside of the city.

          Camp del Turia is made up of several towns - Lliria, Villamarchante, Domeño, Marines, Pedralba, Olocau, Betera, Benaguacil, Benisano, La Eliana, Ribarroja, and San Antonio de Benageber - creating a unique zone with excellent access to highways, the metro, regular bus services and taxis.

     Valencia is the third largest city in Spain after Madrid and Barcelona.

     A beautiful sea city bordering the Mediterranean, Valencia offers a wealth of attractions and history.  In the old city, one can appreciate the beauty of the buildings, the cathedral, and the Quart and Serrano towers which used to be the gates to the city when it was surrounded by a great protective wall.

          The bullring, the main railway station, the city hall, the Marquee de dos Aguas palace, and the central market are just more examples of the wonderful history and culture that can be found in the city – and that’s not mentioning the more modern innovations…..

          The old riverbed of the Turia River has today become one of the nicest urban green areas in the country. The river that once ran though the city has been diverted (due to annual flooding in earlier times) and the entire riverbed turned into gardens, sport areas, parks, and, at one end, there is a music pavilion, the city of science, an IMAX theatre and the oceanographic park - and this is just a taste of the modern architecture and culture Valencia has to offer.

          Valencia also has one of the best hospitals in Europe and from 8 to 10 public and private hospitals with excellent medical assistance and the most advanced technology.

              

         Valencia harbour, with its old buildings and new passenger boat terminals, makes a beautiful contrast well worth seeing.

          Valencia has a beautiful yacht club and its beaches are joined by a long promenade which, in the summer, has open terrace clubs and bars operating nightly.

          The city centre is full of both large and small shops and shopping centres with all kinds of products for sale. Typical Valencian restaurants offer exquisite selections of Mediterranean dishes. The region is famous for its paellas – at the top of the list of a wide variety of dishes.

                 

          For its beauty and culture, its services, and for its warm and sunny weather, Valencia is everything you could ever want and an excellent place to live.
