I love travelling and that is why I know very well what makes a place special. I have lived in exciting countries like Ethiopia, Burma and China as well as the UK and Ireland.

The route “Valencia in times of the Republic” puts into context the importance of Valencia in the 1930s, during the Second Spanish Republic. In the midst of the Civil War, Largo Caballero's government decided to move to Valencia, which would be the capital of the Republic for a year.
With the help of an official local guide, you will learn more about the transformations that took place in the city's appearance, its streets and its most emblematic places, those that changed the course of history.
You will discover the traces of "Blasquism", since the Valencian writer and politician Vicente Blasco Ibáñez was a key figure in the development of the republican spirit of the city. You will visit various medieval palaces converted into ministries.
