- Which is the most underrated city in Spain?
Everyone associates cities in Spain with different things. Barcelona always drives so many tourists who want to see the whimsical buildings of Gaudi. Madrid brings people as it is the capital and the largest city in Spain. Sevilla and Cordoba mesmerize with their history and the beautiful islands of Ibiza and Mallorca make people dream about their perfect vacation BUT ... there is one city everyone keeps missing and in my opinion is the most underrated city in Spain, Valencia. It is the third largest city and yet it is not getting the love it deserves. Valencia has great architecture, excellent universities, it is very safe, it has an amazing beach and gorgeous weather year round. Watch my video to discover why I think this city is still so underrated!

My partner and I have been here for three months exploring the city. Currently living in Miami area of the US, we are seriously discussing moving here permanently! Love it here and love your videos.
Gracias, gracias por querer tanto mi ciudad. Como tú dices es la gran desconocida
Thank you! You have me hooked on Valencia! I live in Phoenix, AZ and my husband and I are going to visit Valencia next year. We are thinking of leaving the US and Valencia is one of our choices. Thank you for making these awesome videos so we can actually visualize what Valencia is all about!
Oh great! I hope you will like it!
you won't regret it
Como valenciano,me siento orgulloso de ti. Te queremos .
Q buena energía respecto a Valencia.
Eres realmente especial,como la ciudad,ya eres valenciana ,de factor y de corazón.
antonetta you are so beautiful and all my family love you and we waiting always the next video .. im very enjoying how you are discribing the city and the quality of life there ...we visited valencia many times and we love it so much ..but with you we love it even more..thank you
I was on Valencia back 2018, and I love it
Antoanetta, I first heard about Valencia about 2012 when visiting Santiago De Compostela from my AirBnB host. He was tired of the cold and gray weather of the northwest and longed for places warmer. I asked this fellow, a native Galician, where was his favorite place in Spain and where he would want to live if he wasn't in this chilly corner of the country. His response surprised me- Valencia! And that put it on the map for me. He seemed well traveled and well read, and that was my first introduction to this city I had never heard of before.
Your great videos have definitely shortlisted Valencia for me! Keep up the good work.
We were there since Sunday and we just back home today... its truelly beautiful City thanks for your Vlog....
I am 4 weeks into a 5-week Spain "expedition." Spent 1 week in Barcelona, 1 week in Valencia......some time in Palma Mallorca, Malaga, Marbella, Bilbao and finally San Sebastian for the last 4 days. Previous trips included Seville, Cordoba, Granada, and Madrid.
I can understand why you like Valencia, but for me, it just did not draw me in. I spent an entire day looking at apartments with a realtor, but Valencia seemed off the mark for a few key things I ended up liking more in other Spanish cities, and some things you mentioned did not seem as appealing to me, and the way I would utilize them if I did live in Valencia.
San Sebastian has knocked my socks off so far. However, I must admit I am looking for a secondary summertime city and one that is cooler than my primary home in Orlando, FL. San Sebastian is beautiful in the summer, and the weather is much nicer. I would not be a fan of San Sebastian if I had to live the winters in Spain, and that is for sure (a bit too cold and grey). I wish San Sebastian was not so darn expensive in the areas I would purchase because I would write a check tomorrow in this beautiful city.
My favorite 3 cities are San Sebastian, Madrid, and Seville. Barcelona and Valencia are also very nice.
My wife and I agree with you. We were in Valencia with our adult children last September. We liked it so much, we are gong to be there for the last two weeks of September. We are also going to look at some properties. We hope to retire there. Maybe we will see you around Valencia.
Don't come, please. Expats and tourists have ruined the city and now it's not affordable for locals.
watching all your video, we decided to move from LA to Valencia. thanks of you. 🙂
Antoanetta my husband and I love your videos. We visited Valencia back in 2018 and had a super groovy time. Got tipsy with some local painters (house painters) in a small tapas bar in El Cabanyal. Walked everywhere, ate great food and laughed out loud. We are now planning on retiring in the Valencia area, this year.
I'm visiting Valencia in July .. and you made me more excited after this video
Thank you Antoanetta for this video about my City, you are a good person and thank you for being among us.
My pleasure!!
Thank you for introducing us to Valencia. We had a lovely stay when travel recommenced, loved every minute and this year we're coming back. What you're sharing adds so much depth to our enjoyment of Valencia. Please have a treat on us!
Awww 🙏🏻 thank you so much! It means a lot that I can bring value to you!
I'm travelling to discover Valencia in next 5 days. Yeah 😀
Por cierto,pasa un día en la Albufera y el Saler. Te encantara pasear en barca por la Albufera.❤
This Steve, I want to sincerely thank for you vlogs which I’ve watched since February and I am in Valencia looking for a property to buy. Your vlogs have motivated and inspired me so much. Today I rented a bike and went via RUSSAFA, Gran Via, Turia, El Cabanyal,The Beach and back to Estacion Nord as I’m staying in Gandia. For 2 weeks I took Renfe for €12 return ticket. Not to mention the AVE high speed train 1.5 hours from Valencia to Madrid to visit my friends/manager. Again thanks for your inspiration. Unfortunately I don’t have Gran Via nor Ave Regne De Valencia budget but damn what a beautiful area.
Tomorrow will visit a top floor apartment in Ciutat Vella 4th floor without lift. Mezzanine setup due to high ceilings with loft space. Very excited. Once I have the keys will invite 😂
So glad we call this city our home now! It's really a hidden gem and as much as we'd like to keep it to yourselves, people will eventually find out about this beautiful place 😍👍😍
yes guys :) we are happy we live here!!
You expats have already ruined the place.
Because of your content I will be visiting in November. I’ve also decided to add it to my list of places to retire. Thank you so much 🤗
Thanks truly appreciate it
I just came back from Valencia, just fell in love, Its amazing.
看了你的视频以后，更加坚定了我去瓦伦西亚的决心😊
Thank you for this video about Valencia. I agree with what you say. It is a city that falls in love. Soon I will be there again.
Valencia is great, well done and superb work you've done.
Thanks 😎
Great video! We have family in Valencia for school, and you’ve reinforced our good feelings about Valencia & it’s benefits. We’ll be there this winter, hope to see you!
Your videos are by far the nicest and most informative! I am thinking of moving/retiring in Valencia. Although you are much, much more younger, I would love to know your thoughts on single woman from the USA moving to Spain alone and your recommendations. Thank you for all of your lovely videos … you always cover so many interesting topics and love when you film your meals. How about cost of beauty salon/hair/nails, etc. Un abrazo!😎🌸💖
Hi I agree with you. We love Valencia ❤️❤️❤️ this year we will visit Valencia again for two weeks ❤️❤️❤️
My honest opinion, is that since you are an artist, you have a gift, and can can see the beauty on everything you you ser, or experiment. As well you can tell, what and who is genuine. I love and appreciate art, as well as history. Everytime you upload a video, I know I will enjoy it, because you transmit that energy, and that that delight. I don't have to be there, to enjoy the awesome things that every city has to offer through you, through your videos, through your words. Thank you, yes thank you.
Hermoso video de una hermosa ciudad. Se nota que lo has hecho con mucho cariño!!!
Te he escuchado hablar español con muy buen acento. Cuando te atreveras a hacer un video en español? Estoy convencido que nos sorprederas a todos de lo bien que lo haras... Un saludo enorme!!!
I love when you ordered your Horchata drink in Spanish, like a local, wow👍💯
By the way, up until 31st July anyone can travel free on metro valencia, so it is your chance 2 visit landmarks like the Xll century (if l am not mistaken) morish Tower in Torrente / Torrent, etc.
Can travel free on Metro Valencia ONLY on Sundays ;)
Hola,
Just returned from Valencia! Had a lovely time.All that you say was what I experienced.
Back in Paris now.
ciao,Steve
Enjoying your videos. I'm coming to Valencia during the World Cup, in a few weeks time. Can't wait.
Te entiendo perfectamente. Valencia es una ciudad fantástica. Tiene todo. No olvides visitar, si aún no lo has hecho, el norte de España, el País Vasco, Cantabria o Asturias. Te sorprenderá y para bien
Would love to visit Basque region!!
@@ANTOANETTA mejoran los servicios de Ave este verano con el paso Atocha Chamartín y llegada del Ave hasta Burgos. El momento de ir al Norte de España es en Verano!!!
Suggestion: Go to Els Sariers for orxata (Machado metro station), and try orxata with ice cream. And you forgot a hidden characteristic of Valencia 3/4 of the population read music, and marching bands are the best of the world, having a valencian musician almost every pro orchestra in the world.
I liked it so much I bought a flat in arracapins! Love your videos , and very much agree with you. Took 3 days for me to fall in love with Valencia. I retire in 2.5 years and hope my wife and kids can call Valencia home for a few years.
I think you're right that it's missed by many people. We breezed through in a single day and really should have stayed for a bit. Good reason to come back I guess!
Will visit next month. You make it feel amazing. Thanks 😊
Hi, Antoanetta! Just discovered your channel today and I'm kinda binge-watching your videos about Valencia 😂❤ I will be moving there in September to study a master's, so your content is super helpful, and also VERY well done... thank you! :)
Another wonderful video! You should be Valencia's ambassador at large Antoanetta!

Hello! , I’ve been following your channel for a while and I really really like your content , thanks to your videos I’ve gotten to know Valencia. Im seriously considering moving from Miami Florida to your city, keep it up looking forward to more😊
I've been to Barcelona and would like to visit Seville. You've got me curious about Valencia.
I like your videos!
How is access to general healthcare and dental? Curious and thanks for showing us around the city. Hope to visit in Sept again.
Amazing work once again!
Thank you
Great video we agree with you on the statement that is underrated city! Hopefully we will be there on November for a short visit and long one next year! Safe travels! We love your videos! Zoe and Ramon
Brilliant.... Brilliant.... Love your videos and your persona
Happy you loved it 😊
Thanks for the videos. We planned to move to Valencia in 2020 but the virus halted that plan. It looks like it's time to make the move. Hope to see you around whatever neighborhood we decide to hang our hats. All the best.
Valencia is beautiful! I have visited and I want to visit again. There is much that I haven't seen. You're right it's underrated.
i need to keep my eye out for you in the city 😄 i live here too and have no regrets 4 years strong. . your editing skills are better than mine lol 😭 great vlog !
it's like you speak my mind
Yes, I want to visit soon. 😁
El encanto y la belleza de Valencia es único. Valencia no debe convertirse en Madrid, ni en Barcelona. Esta ciudad llena de carácter y belleza, la contempla día tras día. Viva Valencia.💖
please can you show us the plaza de la virgen how its became ... i was there lust time 2 yers ago but it was under maintenace
I don't even care about Madrid or Barcelona anymore, I want to see the southern part thanks to you!
It´s almost a month that I follow your videos, beacuse I live in this city and I am courious to listen other people´s thoughts and experiences or to discover something I do not know :) and except for few small nuances (but at the same time, some our opinions are not the truth) your videos are accurate and lovely to listen and to watch. But Valencia is not so "underrated" being the 3rd city most visited in Spain ;) or as much has a head-to-head with Sevilla and perhaps Granada. And yes, it is a safe city and good place for families as well. Unfortunately the general prices have grown quite much and quickly in the latest few years even if , for lot of expats could still be economic in same ways 👋
Gracias x los subtítulos en español .
Nice
We love it
Wow
Dont forget Orange is the main fruit of that region. From valencia to the rest of the Spain is distribuited.
Natural Orange juice taste is really amazing.
perhaps in the world, in spain there are few valencian oranges, considered the best in the world.
most is exported
07/02/2022 The Valencian Community is the main citrus exporting region in the world, with 14% of world exports, on a production that rises to 2% of the total citrus that grows in the world
According to official data, Valencia is below the average of green areas per capita in Spain. Knowing the city, it is difficult to understand why Valencia is considered deficient in green areas. The city's relatively low pollution is mainly due to the wind regime. There is an almost constant breeze from the sea, which makes the city quite ventilated.
Valencia is the second city with the most Erasmus students in the European Union, only behind Granada. It is indeed a very suitable city for students. It has a mix of moderate prices, good infrastructure and a not very big city size.
I would love to visit there
Spain is great! 👍👍👍
Best city in Europe .
Hi Antonanetta. I love this city and your videos play some part in why I am here right now. Thank you !
Sorry if I'm just really stupid, but I'm trying to buy a Super Thanks but it asks for an Address in Spain(only gives option for Spanish provinces) , tax info etc....is there a way to switch it so it gives the option of an address in the U.S as my payment method is connected to a US address ?
I was on Google maps looking around Valencia and saw the oranges on the trees in between some of the streets. Can you pick them or do s it frowned upon?
When you say perfect weather year around are you talking about temperature wise or is it mostly sunshine year round with a little bit of rain I imagine there has to be some rain because it is a coastal city I’m very curious?
How cold is Valencia in Jan? I am very likely going before Christmas and stay for 15 days.
Antoanetta, Do Valencian restaurants have A/C? I saw you having makeup issues and it caused me to think about that.
Страхотна е Валенсия,около нея има и много интересни малки градчета.Поздрави!
The EUROPEAN ABD THE ITALIAN AND FRENCH , GERMAN ,BRITISH NOW VALENCIA FOR YEARS AND YEARS MAYBE THE USA ,AND NOW THEY ARE COMING TO LIVE HERE LIKE CRAZY
Love watching your videos as I’m preparing to spend a year in Valencia! I’m at the apt search phase now - airbnbs are so expensive right now in central Valencia! I’ve been checking out Spotahome and idealista as well but not seeing that many options in the €1000 range in El Carmen. Any other tips?
Hello Diana, how are you doing today
I feel like the only country that seems to really know Valencia as a top destination are the Dutch! There’s so many Dutch tourists all year long. Next seems to be British and German? But not sure about that
For me the most underrated city in Spain is Málaga.
Cierto he vivido 55 años en valencia en la playa, y tienes toda la razón Valencia esta muy mal valorada, yo vivo ahora en la montaña pero muy cerca a 48 km. de Valencia Cuando vengo a Valencia y me encanta pasear por sus playas y sus calles. Un saludo.
We are ingoint
great video, but you missed mentioning the churches..... thanks anyway
concerning great weather year round: how pleasant is it in the summer? I suppose it get's very hot and muggy?
Weather by the ocean is hot, but mild, compared to inland Spain. That's why the coast becomes so crowded during summer. It's similar to California weather. The beach is 10 to 15 degrees cooler, than in the valleys or inland cities.
@@RobertRod818 thanks. I was also wondering specifically about muggyness, which I heard is very bad in Valencia. 40 degrees and dry air in Madrid could be more comfortable than 32 degrees humid air in Valencia.
Everything is amazing about Valencia. Valencia is what is good about Spain. Traditional and modern city. Please do not make more videos about Valencia. Valencia should stay hidden from spoiling dinero.
During my property search I came to the conclusion that RUSSAFA and El Cabanyal ore overheated aka overhyped,my humble opinion.
They are.
Im moving there soon hopefully they're welcoming to me as a black personn but i wont hold my breath.
Nadie ha dicho que Valencia sea una ciudad fea, es un bonita ciudad y no creo que este inflavalorada. Es una de las ciudades mas visitada del pais. Lo unico es que delante de Valencia, hay ciudades españolas con las que no puede rivalizar en belleza.... ciudades españolas infravaloradas? Burgos, quizas Salamanca....
Why underrated? Maybe where you come from,but where i live everybody knows valencia
Why underrated?
It is trust me
Wow
😍
