Hidden Treasures of Valencia Tour
A tour designed for those who wish to look beyond the typical places and discover the most spiritual, silent and authentic Valencia.
Discover El Patriarca and San Juan del Hospital with an official guide.
To uncover Valencia’s hidden gems, we begin by exploring the Church of Santos Juanes, one of the great treasures of Valencian Baroque. Its dynamic façade, sculptural details, and rich symbolism tell centuries of history shaped by guilds, fires, restorations, and miracles that helped define the city’s identity. A powerful first stop to understand the Valencia that emerged through fire, faith, and renewal.
El Patriarca: A Renaissance gem in the heart of Valencia
From there, we head to Plaza del Patriarca, home to one of the most remarkable Renaissance ensembles in Spain. Inside the Patriarca complex, you will explore the church with its luminous frescoes and uncover the legend of the famous “dragon.” We will then visit the chapel and the museum, which houses an outstanding religious collection and masterful copies of works by artists such as El Greco, Caravaggio, and Ribalta. All of this is wrapped in an almost monastic atmosphere that recalls the splendor of the Counter-Reformation.
The oldest temple
The tour culminates at the Church of San Juan del Hospital, the oldest church in Valencia and one of the city’s true hidden gems. Here you will discover Gothic chapels, remains of the medieval city wall, vestiges of ancient Roman Valentia, and the city’s only preserved 13th-century urban cemetery. A silent and captivating place where history and spirituality intertwine.
Accompanied by an official guide, you will explore these three churches away from the crowded routes, uncovering details, legends, and symbols that often go unnoticed.
If you already know the Cathedral, La Lonja, or San Nicolás, this tour is the perfect complement: a more intimate Valencia, one that keeps its greatest treasures hidden in silence.
