Highlights
Graffiti tour and Carmen Quarter - 3 hours - The graffiti tour is something new and interesting, moreover in the Carmen neighborhood there are many pieces by well-known urban artists. This has always been a bohemian quarter where most of the gills in Valencia were located. Urban art has been transformed over time, going from being considered "vandalism" or clandestine, 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 so called now "the Street of the colours" the photograph of a Kiss. This is well-known as street Moret, where several pieces of street art are represented on a wall 60 meter long, -the mystery of a Kiss- like for instance you will see the tiny Haus of the Cats, you will also see where artists such as Escif, la Nena, Julieta, Deih, Xelón, David de Limón, have left a trace of their talent. Apart from seeing graffiti you also will see buildings or places of interest, like the remains of the Arab wall.

Itinerary
We can start by the Serranos Gate at 10:00 That gate is one of the twelve that formed part of the ancient city wall (christian wall). It was built at the end of the XIV century. Its name is probably due to its location in the northest of the city centre, making it the entry point for the royal road that connected Valencia with the region of "els Serrans".
You will visit this monumental complex from its chronological complexity and diversity of artistic styles: Gothic and Renaissance cloister, refectory, islamic archeological remains, new exhibition halls..
Walking through the neighborhood of El Carmen is like doing it through the corridors of an open-air museum, where artists such as Blu, Escif, la Nena, Julieta, Deih, Xelón, Blu, Luís Lonjedo, Disneylexya, or Limón have left a trace of their talent.

About Valencia
Valencia is a Spanish Mediterranean city of beaches, orange groves, paella, a futuristic arts-and-sciences complex and a medieval silk exchange.
Valencia is Spain's third-largest city, set on a flat coastal plain. In the old town, La Lonja de la Seda, the Gothic silk exchange, is a UNESCO site, and the nearby Central Market is a great hall of iron and glass piled with produce. The cathedral holds a chalice venerated as the Holy Grail, and the Miguelete bell tower can be climbed for views over terracotta roofs.
