The Mercat Central de Valencia is, without a doubt, one of the places not to be missed during your holiday in the beautiful city. For many, considered the real soul of the city!
In a blaze of smells, colors, and tastes, you will literally be kidnapped by the largest market in the Valencian Community. With almost 1000 counters of fresh produce, in modern architecture, the Mercat Central de Valencia offers an endless variety of food and drink. It is a place particularly loved by citizens and, of course, by foreign visitors.
Here, you will find the best fruit and vegetables, coming from the Valencian Huerta, that is, an area of agricultural lands south of Valencia. And, of course, genuine meats and salami, among which the Salamanca hams, and very fresh fish, stand out, with stalls that offer real ‘crustacean’ waterfalls: a pleasure for all the senses.
A place that makes the innovative character one of the strengths. It is, in fact, the first market in the world to face the challenge of the computerization of sales and home delivery.
In the market, more than 400 small traders are hosted. There are also bars and restaurants inside. Furthermore, interesting events and exhibitions are often organized.
