#Discover Russafa

Description

Russafa has been a neighborhood linked to the history of Valencia, from its origin as a recreational village of the Muslim governor, to the place where Jaume I set up his camp before reconquering the city.

It was an independent district of Valencia until 1877, at which time it became a neighborhood in the city. Russafa is now known as the "Soho Valenciano", in full cultural effervescence. We will walk its streets and we will know the identity and history of this neighborhood so ours, discovering the peculiarities of this particular neighborhood of our city.

With monuments as significant as the Church of San Valero, the convent of Our Lady of the Angels, The Schools of Craftsmen, where they studied distinguished students such as Joaquín Sorolla, or the Ruzafa Market building that defines the heart of this picturesque neighborhood.

About operator:

Valencia is a modern city, in constant renewal, and proof of this are the different artistic manifestations that we can find along all its streets, and especially in the area of Ciutat Vella. Graffiti, murals, stickers, stencils, and a whole series of Street Art interventions are carried out by groups such as XLF, and urban artists that are international references such as Deih, Juliet, David de Limon or Pichiavo ...
In the Carmen neighborhood, Street Art has become the salvation and recovery of abandoned streets and squares and they have positioned this neighborhood within a new artistic context and with two references such as IVAM and El Center del Carmen and the different Festivals and exhibitions held in them, as precursors of this avant-garde art that have turned the surroundings of Ciutat Vella into an open-air and live museum.
