2025 Xativa Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in July)

#summervacay Picture this: you stroll into Jardines del Palasiet in Xàtiva, Valencia and suddenly it’s like you’ve stepped into a chill, fairytale garden. It’s full of flowers, big leafy trees, little fountains, and even a few friendly cats that just vibe around like they own the place. The place isn’t massive, but that’s kind of perfect, you can wander, relax, and breathe in the calm without getting lost. There are benches under pergolas, shady corners, and even a cute little fountain that’s perfect for those “look where I am” pics. It used to be part of a fancy estate back in the day, and now it’s this cozy green spot right in town. Bring a book, a snack, or just yourself and enjoy the peaceful vibes. Heads-up: maybe bring bug spray in spring, 'cause mosquitoes can crash the party. But overall, it's a sweet escape, totally free, and one of Xàtiva’s little gems you’ll be glad you wandered into.

Spanish Mediterranean Coast Tour ~ Valencia (Region) It is called La Seu and has strong Renaissance characteristics. It was built between 1596 and 1596 as the Papal Basilica of Borgia, leaving the mark of the Renaissance on the site. Despite its modest size, it exudes a certain grandeur. The main altar, the cloisters and the tower are striking (from there you can have a panoramic view of the city). This is a must-see if you are in the area around Xativa #February2025 #SpainTravel #Valencia

Spanish Mediterranean Coast Tour ~ Valencia (Region) The birthplace of painter José Ribera "el españoleto" and Pope Alexander VI Borgia, it experienced a dark moment in history at the hands of Felipe V, who, following his victory at the Battle of Almansa in the War of the Spanish Succession, ordered the city burned and renamed San Felipe. To commemorate the insult, the monarch’s portrait is hung upside down in the local museum in Lalmodi. The city has preserved a rich artistic heritage to be discovered: the Renaissance Collegiate Church; the Monastery of Saint-Felix, the oldest in the city (it is said to be a Mozarabic temple, rebuilt by Jaume I); the Church of Saint-Père, where Alexander VI was baptized; the Royal Hospital, which still retains its original Renaissance façade; the palaces of the Marquis of Montortal and the Marquis of Araco. There are also fountains: San Francisco, Baroque; Trinidad, Gothic; and a neoclassical fountain with 25 nozzles. The most striking feature is its huge castle, with 30 towers and 4 fortified gates, the result of a fusion of Ibero-Roman fortress and later Arab fortress. The walls that extended from the castle surrounded the Roman city until the tenth century. A second wall was later added, covering what is today the historic district. #2月好地方2025
