- Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias - The emblematic castle that makes it up has existed, according to historical archives, since 1244 when King Jaume I gave the Villa de Anna to the Order of Santiago. The courtyard and the Arab halls of this Palace will be visited, which recreate the decorative world of the Muslims, settled in this municipality from the 12th century, with their splendid ceramic mosaics, coffered ceilings and plasterwork. The modern age makes its way into the Borja and Cervellón rooms, setting each era with decoration and furniture and with a multimedia projection that uses images and sounds to bring the visitor closer to the families that owned Anna County.

Explore the heart of the Valencian Community, with its rugged terrain and steeped-in-history cities that seldom bask in the limelight yet have much to offer. Xàtiva is one such historical gem, boasting many palaces and a rich heritage, famously being the birthplace of the notorious Borgia clan. We’ll drive up to its castle, previously used as a state prison, offering vistas stretching over 80km. Our next stop is Ontinyent, a city that was once a hub for the textile trade, still holding onto its medieval district, the duchess’s manor, and an impressive museum dedicated to Moors and Christians festivals and processions that we’ll walk through. Our last port of call is Anna, home to a palace painstakingly restored by Moroccan craftsmen, adorned with intricate carvings, artwork, and gardens – reasons that have earned it the moniker ‘the Valencian Alhambra’.
