With thousands of light bulbs strung in garlands
and hanging from columns, Valencia, in all its vivacious splendour and
amidst the eager revelry of its people, stages the most spectacular of
festivals: the Fallas.
|
The Fallas
were born in the very heart of the town. A town that has always basked
resplendently in sunshine and blue skies, in serene, romantic nights;
|
where flower gardens and vegetable gardens, the inhabitants of
alleyways and neighbourhoods co-exist in complete naturalness and
simplicity.
|
The Origins of the Festival
When
autumn arrived and the days became shorter, artisans were able to
continue their work by the light of crafted wooden lamps known as parot, estai, pagés, pelmodo or perniodol, providing light for apprentices, journeymen and master craftsemen to continue working.
|
|
|
In the spring, as the days became longer, the lamps were not needed and
were ceremoniously burnt at the workshop door. To this small fire the
craftsmen added off-cuts, wood shavings and leftovers from around the
neighbourhood. The old lamp was placed in a vertical position in the
centre, decorated with old rags and a hat, giving it a human form - the
Ninot Falla. This was how the Ninot came about. The only thing then was for the Ninot
(a caricature of any local, national or international figure) to be put
on top of a pedestal for all to see and laugh at. When these things
come together, we have an authentic Valencian Falla. |

The Tomatina began in 1945. During the huge battle, which starts and
ends with a gun shot, the participants hurl tomatoes at each other.
|
In
the end, the traditional hosing down of the plaza and the participants
takes place.
|
This odd event has attracted the attention of
media professionals from all over the world, who come to Buñol to
experience for themselves and report on to people in their respective
countries.
|
In August 2002, this event was declared a Festivity of
International Tourist Interest.

SPRING is probably the best season to come to Valencia. The city blooms with colours and flower fragances and the average temperature (23ºC) is just perfect, nor too hot, nor too cold.
|
It's the season when all Valencians start going to the beach. You can
take the metro and get to the Malavarrosa beach in only 15 minutes from
the city center, where the school is located.
|
Enjoy our beautiful promenade and our sandy beach, spend some time
reading a book while you get sun tanned. The sea water in spring is
still a bit cold (at least for Spaniards), but most of our students
find it rather warm! In addition to the beaches, Valencia also offers a
great mountain offer.
|
Most of our province is surrounded by beautiful mountains that range
from 500-1500 metres. If you like nature you can take a train and go
hiking and visiting some pretty and pintoresque mountain villages,
rivers and lakes. |
| So if you really want to experience an amazing SPRING with a great mild
weather, sunlight, fragances and colours take the chance to come to
Valencia and learn some Spanish with us! Don't doubt it! |
