Learn Spanish in Valencia

Valencia is the capital of the Land of Valencia and the province of Valencia. Valencia has a Mediterranean climate, with warm dry summers and mild winters. The original Latin name of the city was Valentia , meaning "Strength", "Vigour". During the Moorish period, it was known as Balansiya in Arabic. By regular sound changes this has become Valencia in Spanish and València in Valencian Catalan.

Valencia is famous for the Las Fallas festival in March, for paella valenciana and the new City of Arts and Sciences. La Tomatina, an annual tomato fight, draws crowds to the nearby town of Buñol in August. Valencia has a metro system , run by FGV.
Valencia has a successful football club, Valencia C.F., which won the Spanish league in 2002 and 2004 (in which year it also won the UEFA Cup), and was UEFA Champions League Finalist in 2000 and 2001.

In the 1980s and 1990s clubbers would follow the "ruta de bacalao" from Madrid to Valencia. Today, bars and nightclubs are concentrated in the Carmen and university areas. As is normal for Spain, nightlife does not take off until well after midnight.

The two official languages spoken in the city are Spanish and Valencian. Due to political and demographic pressure in the past, the predominant language is Spanish, as opposed to areas surrounding the metropolitan area in the province of Valencia. The local government makes sure it emphasizes the use of the local language. Valencia is famous for its vibrant nightlife.
