Valencia Cathedral is one of the most beautiful places in Valencia. This stunning cathedral, which dates back to the 13th century, is essentially a museum of 15th-century paintings. Its facade is an architectural hodgepodge of different styles, including Romanesque, Baroque and Gothic elements. Inside the Valencia Cathedral you will find the Chapel with the Holy Chalice. Many researchers suspect that this is actually the true Holy Grail. The chalice itself has Arabic inscriptions and dates back to the 1st century. It was donated to the cathedral in the 15th century by the King of Aragon.

Plaça de la Reina is dedicated to Queen Maria de la Mercè d'Orleans, the short wife of King Alfonso XII. During the Second Republic (1931-1939), this square was named after Francesc de Vinatea. In the square, the view of Micalet stands out, the bell tower of the cathedral. As a curiosity, it should be said that this square constitutes the reference for numbering the buildings of the city of Valencia, and not the Town Hall Square. It is also home to kilometer zero of Valencia's radial roads, under the jurisdiction of the Generalitat Valenciana.

The style of Valencia Cathedral is predominantly Gothic and the building was previously an ancient Roman temple and later a mosque, although many elements from other time periods can also be found, from the Romanesque style to the Baroque. Work on the current building began in the 13th century with a Latin cross, ambulatory and dome over the crossbeam. In the fifteenth century, the chapter house, the dome, the Miguelete and the door of the apostles were built. Also striking are the iron gate in Baroque style and the Palau or Almoina gate in Romanesque style.

The Plaza de la Virgen square is located in the center. To be precise in the La Seu district. The square's origins date back to Roman times and is now one of the busiest places in the city.
