Nos reuniremos a la hora indicada en la plaza de la Virgen para iniciar nuestro recorrido por el barrio de El Carmen . Sus laberínticas calles, herencia del urbanismo islámico, nos dejarán conocer los secretos de este vecindario cuya historia se remonta a la conquista de Valencia en el siglo XII.

Nos adentraremos por sus estrechas calles, y entre viviendas y comercios locales seremos testigos del arte urbano que viste sus paredes . Conoceremos a los principales artistas, tanto valencianos como internacionales , que han querido dejar una muestra de sus creaciones en El Carmen, y sus obras nos ayudarán a comprender cómo se vive en el barrio con más personalidad de Valencia .

Mezclándonos con los locales continuaremos conociendo rincones que, a través de  dibujos abstractos, caricaturas y pinturas de denuncia , transmiten a valencianos y visitantes la cultura de El Carmen, uno de los barrios con más arte de la ciudad.

Tras dos horas y media de recorrido, finalizaremos el free tour del grafiti despidiéndonos cerca de la  plaza del Carmen .

DESTINATION VALENCIA VLC > My very personal Travel Blog on Valencia by María Tortajada <

📝© original website content created in spanish, english & french >>> + on instagram @destination_vlc, tour in valencia: urban street art.

Having recently meandered through the  labyrinth-esque streets of Valencia’s old town, the  topic for  my next blog post sprang to mind in a flash. The subtle and impressive world of urban street art in this already captivating city! This kind of art is generating a lot of curiosity lately, and it is justified, it has become a new way of vindicating some old abandoned buildings and the walls in some streets… without a doubt, most of the time, it is in a beautiful decorated form.

Some of the artists who created these little (or big!) works of art, are in fact already recognized artists… Of course, there is much to see, but this post is what I intend to show you are on my favorites list and where to find them exactly… I assure you that I was not easy to choose!

I do hope you like my selection and their titles, some originals and others homegrown, are you ready?

• << Frida >>

A long time ago I saw this graffiti on Instagram and I had an absolute crush on it immediately… I didn´t know where it was and never paused to give it time. Between the gardens next to the Faculty of geography and history (on the Campus of Blasco Ibáñez) you will find this huge mural depicting Frida Kahlo.

Signed by Julieta XLF , well worth taking a leap outside the circuit of the Barrio del Carmen to see it, won’t let down you, neither this nor the rest of beautiful designs that decorate the wall.

• << Street of Colors: Photo of a kiss >>

To give it justice in this post, this is one of my favorite places in Valencia… the well known Moret street or Street of Colors , it is the same place where some of the best known graffiti can be found in the city.

As I cannot choose just one, I will divide this wall in two. This one, <<Photo of a kiss >> by Luis Lonjedo and the next…

• << Street of Colors: Melancholy >>

…and this one, where a young girl, the artist Deih , rests crestfallen on a bridge in Venice without knowing she has caught the attention of people passing by… from Valencia!

In this picture you can see the various artists who participated in this project.

• << The House of cats of the Barrio del Carmen >>

This is the work of the craftsman and sculptor Alfonso Yuste Navarro, dating back to 2003. The curious detail is that it makes reference to «als quatre gats» (four cats) who stayed in Valencia at the time of El Cid , in the 11th century when they decided to put an end to the cats that had been in the city since it was said that they were bringing bad luck.

The tiny door of this miniature house is designed so cats come and go at will from this site that is located in the street of the Museum. If you look very close, it does not lack detail…

On the same wall you will see a tile marking the level to which the water came from the River Turia when it overflowed in the great flood that inundated the city in October 1957. There are several buildings with indicators of different levels where the water reached in that sad occasion of Valencia.

• << Supported in the hand of the future >>

In the hidden Street Calle del Cabrito, we find Deih urban artist’s work. It is certainly worth passing by there and taking a look at this masterpiece of this well-known artist, I do not know the original title of this design, but it transmits something to me, what do you all think?

• << The bicycle girl >>

And again… Julieta XFL! … Yes, I have a weakness for her and admit that when walk through Valencia and I find a new drawing of hers, I can’t help but smile… and take a picture! This in particular is in the street of Pintor Fillol in the bikes rental shop Bed & Bike that with a little idea had this brilliant artist to decorate its façade… without a doubt, a great success.

• << In love >>

We continue our journey towards Salvador Giner street and voilà , another graffiti that I love… This time is the famous David de Limón (David Lemon) who signs this wall next to La Nena Wapa Wapa (Gorgeous gorgeous girl).

• << Kiosk >>

In the beautiful Plaza del Arbol is this three-dimensional graffiti depicting a traditional kiosk on one of the walls of the square…

.. .and of course, one of the men of David lemon paints looks out and is watching from the corner!

• << Double-sided >>

The renowned Italian artist, Erica Il Cane «takes advantage» of this building’s three facades, two of them (which gives us views of Alta and Baja street) to show us this curious mural.

On one side, on Alta street, there is a huge cat on fire and on the other, and on Baja street, a rabbit and a chicken are fighting with the typical Valencian paella at their feet.

• << Lemon spray >>

Here we have it again! On this wall, two of the little men of David De Limón (Lemon) play with spray paint graffiti… I couldn’t be a better image to use on the cover of this post!

Tour the centre of Valencia and you will see their characters crouched in impossible corners all as one. In a counter of light, on a scaffold, almost beyond where you see, you will find some of their expressive drawings, always (or almost always) with a heart beating in his chest.

• << Dangerous beard >> / 12. << Parked >>

Among Quart street and the Plaza del Tossal are two enormous murals, side by side. One of them is a huge design Blu representing a beard composed of numerous snakes… and the other is this enormous painting work of Escif that represents a few parked cars abandoned, floating…? What do you all think?

• << Stop victim war’s wall >>

Fasim , the urban artist born in Barcelona, drew this on Calderers street wall in 2010. With this great wall in yellow and black titled «art is not a crime, war crime is» the author denounces the drama of civil wars and armed conflicts that happen in our world today.

• << Arquicostura >>

Raquel Rodrigo is the artist of both the original wall in the busy Plaza Lope de Vega as the floating structure on the site of a building on Bolseria street, is this his way of creating? This is embroidery on large surfaces, a collection of precious flowers in colors, XL in size. The result?… absolutely, wonderful!

For sure you will find the city in its different artistic contributions… here I show you two of them.

• << “No ser res si no s´és poble” >>

Very close to the Central Market, on the Street Taula de Canvis, there is a small square where the Valencian company Tyris has the famous local Tyris on Tap (where to taste their craft beers), beside you can find a huge wall with an urban painting titled «No ser res si no s´és poble» by Elias Taño .

This spectacular multicolored graffiti is one of my favorite as background for any individual or group photo!

• << Between dreams… >>

Again a work of Julieta XLF. In the Zeid Moro Street, we can see one of their girls dreaming, resting on this dark and elongated wall… in the background an abandoned area is sheltering this colorful dream…

• << Postcard from Valencia >>

Another business that had the great idea of decorating the adjoining wall with a beautiful graffiti is Shabby Chic , in the street of Tapineria.

In my opinion it is one of the best «postcards» of Street art in Valencia…(I took the photo which I shared here a few months ago, after this, the graffiti was damaged).

• << Bonjour Tristesse >>

Walking along Conde de Montornés street in the direction of the Bancaja Foundation we find a huge wall with this graffiti already somewhat colorless but not so devoid of symbolic force… Escif is the artist who signs this large wall drawing.

• << Simplicity >>

Right on the wall that is opposite the wall «Bonjour Tristesse» and separated by a large plot, is this simple and inspiring design by Sam 3 . Some time ago I published it on my Instagram Gallery . Less is definitely more…

• << Open-heart >>

In the back terrace of the Restaurant Secreter, via the narrow street of les Escoles del Temple, you can be amazed with this enormous and beautiful heart whose arteries end in flowering branches.

• << Batman is back >>

Very close to the Corts Valencianes, at the Samaniego Street, is a short walk to this funny Batman… underwear thief!

I hope that you have enjoyed my selection. As you may have seen, street art is a very lively artistic trend, it may be that one day you pass by a street and your favorite wall is no longer there, so I recommend always go with your camera at the ready, for at least, you can have them immortalized in your memory…

Here’s a couple of my «old favorites» that are no longer with us , but others that are equally as beautiful (or more) that you have seen.

I hope that my post will encourage you to take a stroll through the city and to help you discover and find these «little treasures» of Valencia, see you in my next post!!

Street art in Valencia

Street art / graffiti tour in valencia.

During this street art tour in Valencia You will see the old quarter of el Carmen and also some interesting street art pieces – graffiti.

We can start by the Serranos Gate that is one of the twelve that formed part of the ancient city wall (Christian Wall).

El Centre del Carme

The emblematic neighborhood owes its name to the church and Convent of el Carmen and as well to the adjacent square.

The complex monument of this old convent illustrates, from its chronological complexity and diversity of artistic styles, important stages in the history of architecture in the city of Valencia.

In front of the Carmen Centre we will see “ the tiny Haus of the Cats “. A little further on we will find the centenary Plaza del Árbol, we can also visit the famous Mossen Sorell Market , with a wide range of gourmet products.

The Portal de la Valldigna

This is a portal of the 1400s that separated the Christian city of Morería from Valencia.

Nearby we can also see the remains of the Arab wall , that have been a National Historic Monument since 1963 with a large 11th century tower. It is completely integrated into the building, and it is made of stone.

Walking through the neighbourhood of el Carmen is like going through the corridors of an open-air museum , where artists such as Blu, Escif, la Nena, Julieta, Deih, Xelón, Blu, Luís Lonjedo or Limón have left a trace of their talent. Street art in Valencia has been transformed over time, going from being considered “vandalism” to being one of the most appreciated forms of modern art. It is a popular art and in many cases ephemeral. We will see the street popularly called “the Street of the colours” the photograph of a Kiss. The well-known calle Moret, where several graffiti are represented on a 60-meter-long wall, “the mystery of a Kiss”, with the hashtag kissmeVLC and many more.…

See you soon in el Carmen!

Urban Art Tour in Valencia

Get to know the Urban Art in Valencia

Whether you’re a master painter or not an artist at all, you’ll see the streets of Valencia covered with beautiful representations at each turn.  One of the Coolest Things to do in Valencia is the Street Art Tour in Valencia .  Of all of the Tours in Valencia, the urban art tour is the one to go on to see murals and graffiti of numerous urban artists who have turned the city of Valencia into a giant museum.

Street art tour in Valencia

Our U rban Art Tour in Valencia starts in Calle Peydro and goes towards Plaza de la Merced, which is very close to the Central Market (Mercado Central) . In this street, you can find graffiti of two artists: Hyuro and Escif .

Hyuro is an Argentinian-born artist who is lives in Valencia. His pseudonym consists of both his first and last name.

Escif is one of the biggest players in the Valencian street art scene- to many he is even known as the Spanish Banksy .

The next piece by Hyuro is in all grey tones- showing the identity of Hyuro’s work. This is an artist that always invites us to reflect on the weight of living in a city, the complexity of integrating into a society, and animal abuse. On this mural, injured deer surrounded by spotlights are the protagonists of the painting. The whole world sees them, but no on tries to help.

In the same area as these murals, many other artists have left their mark on the shutters of local stores .  This is a form of art that can only be enjoyed for only a short amount of time, considering that the shutter is only put down when the shops are closed .  Some of these paintings have some context to the nature of the store, and some are completely unrelated- keep an eye out for interesting pieces on your next walk through Valencia.

Next for the tour: walk towards the street Numancia, where you can observe various pieces of  street art  with many bright colors, that were created by Hyuro and Escif .

The tour continues in Calle de la Estameñeria , where you can find numerous colorful and bright pieces of graffiti, with a touch of abstract art, created by Esik , a  Valencian graffiti artist who started making the streets more colorful in the mid 90’s.

In the case of Julieta XLF , it is not necessary for her to leave her signature, since her work can be recognized very easily. Her illustrations include Japanese influences and her colorful murals are full of imaginary of animals, whimsical girls, and plants that are very characteristic and speak for themselves.  This is a direct contrast to the work of Cere , who pieces are grey toned, simple, and always with a clearly bold message.

If you return to Calle Caballeros and cross  Plaza de San Jaime , you’ll get to Calle Alta and Calle Baja . Both have beautiful and enormous murals on their buildings. In Calle Baja you can find an urban mural which shows a rabbit strangling a chicken over a paella pan . This is the work of the Italian artist Erica Il Cane. This work of art suggests that the chicken and the rabbit fight to death to decide which is the best ingredient for the paella valenciana . Below them you see the paella pan and a group of people in grey tones who are waiting to eat and are watching the scene without intervening.

In Calle de la Benefcencia , you can enjoy more works of  Julieta XLF .

On the other side in Calle Ripalda , you can find Calle Doctor Chiarri , where you are you can see two big and bright murals by Julieta XLF .

To end the urban art tour, in Calle de Na Jordana , you can find  Plaza de Bere Borrego and  Galindo , which leads into Calle Museo , in which you can see Casa de los Gatos del Carmen and the  Iglesia del antiguo Convento del Carmen . After this street you can find Plaza del Carmen , where you can find the headquarters of the  Asociación de Ciudadanos Mayores de la Comunidad Valenciana (CIMA)- on this building is one of the murals that best represent the monuments of the city.

Last but not least, in Calle Roteros you can enjoy the demonstrative messages of Cere , the adorable Japanese dolls of Julieta XLF and the urban art murals that decorate some shops in the street. From this point, we would like to recommend you to visit the Serranos Towers .

If you want to return to where you started the  Street art tour in Valencia ,  you can take the bus lines 6 , 16 and 26 of EMT Valencia, to  Plaza del Ayuntamiento .

Valencia is the capital of the Valencian Province and is one of the top cities in attracting tourists from all over the world. Located in southern Spain, it lies on the Mediterranean coast and is the point where Turia River meets the sea. This privileged position makes it the third-largest city in Spain, behind Madrid and Barcelona. Although it is a coastal city, you wouldn’t know that as you walk through the narrow streets of its Old Town during one of the best times to visit, Spring when the colors are at their brightest and the temperatures are perfect. But you may want to consider going there a little earlier to get the chance to celebrate this city’s largest street festival, Las Fallas. 

Having so many iconic places to visit, it could be very helpful to start your holidays off with the help of a local guide, or guru, who can show you all the major spots and those lesser-known gems on the tour routes so you can discover the true side of Valencian culture and history while giving you some insider tips on what and where to eat! There are different free walking tours in Valencia which will take you around to amazing places like The City of Arts and Sciences , with its 7 modern architectural buildings, L'Hemisfèric,(IMAX Theater) the Principe Felipe Science Museum, L'Umbracle, the Oceanographic, (Aquarium) the Palau de les Arts, (Opera Hall) the Agora and the Bridge of L'Assut d'or. There are other tours with different routes that will take you to the Old Town to see other historic places like the Virgen’s Square with the Cathedral and the Basilica of the Virgen, or you could visit Valencia City Hall and the generous Square of the same name in front, the Lonja, the Central Market, The Serrano Towers and the old, medieval gate to the Old Town, or you could also take a stroll down Turia Gardens, and even go to the largest freshwater lagoon in Spain, La Albufera, where you can see the diversity in plant and wildlife at the edge of the Mediterranean Sea. 

All the free walking tours in Valencia have reviews and opinions from other travelers who have already done the guided tour, and about both the route and the local guru. Book and choose a tour in the morning, the afternoon, or the evening depending on your own itinerary. What’s more, you may also be interested in checking out similar free walking tours in other Spanish cities like Alicante or Tarragona. In our blog you have a complete article about what to see in Valencia .

Valencia has been my new home for a while now, and I've written plenty about history in Valencia , Asian food in Valencia and some stunning natural areas in the Valencia community . But sometimes when you actually live in a city, it can be hard to find the time to get involved in some of the fun tourist activities that make visiting a new city for a weekend break so good. B eing a tourist means trying to make the most of every minute of a trip , and packing loads of different things, places and tastes into every day. And so before the Xmas break I decided it would be a good idea to be a tourist in Valencia for a day...

Guided tours for free...

I found an amazing company here that gives expert locally guided tours for FREE! The disclaimer is that if you want to pay the tour guide you can/should (they don't get paid by the company) - this is not a trick to make you feel guilty, as the tour really was fantastic, fun and interesting. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and managed to explain everything about some of the most famous monuments,whilst keeping the tour light and exciting.

The company is unsurprisingly, called Free Tour Valencia, and you can find them at the link below. The beginning of the tour (and meet-up place) is in the Plaza de la Virgen, and it's an energetic and packed place right next to the cathedral of Valencia. It's an ideal place to begin a tour, as it really feels like the heart of the city, with the modern city to one side and the old part on the other.

The tour took us to the Roman underpinnings of the city, on to the most important medieval towers and castles...

Graffiti and markets...

One of the most exciting parts of wandering around Valencia is the sheer amount of stunning graffiti. It's not the 'dirty and messy' type but instead the 'how on earth did they do that' type. Sprawling tall artwork that is both modern and talent-packed. The tour walks past some of the best-known pieces, as well as some commentary about by who, and why they were done.

The tour winds its way through the old town and ends up at the Central Market, which many locals would consider to be the heart of the city, It's the perfect way to end the tour, as there you can find every kind of food and drink that are typical to the city. One of the interesting things about the market is that although at first it looks a bit touristy, with flags and random trinkets to buy outside, inside it's really a proper market. Meat, cheese and wine are all on offer, as well as artisan chocolate and every part from every animal you could imagine eating!
