This cozy coffee shop is located in the heart of the Ruzafa district, and is characterized by its nordic style furniture combined with flowers, design magazines and lots of light. Dulce de Leche offers a wide range of argentinian and spanish specialities cooked with the healthiest ingredients. I recommend to go there in advance because it’s always quite crowded, but the visit is really worth it. It’s the best brunch in Valencia with absolutely no doubt.

Getting in this sushi restaurant is like entering a Kioto street from a minimalist perspective. The interior design by Masquespacio Studio is inspired by the japanese architecture of traditional houses and streets, recreated with the presence of wooden structures. An impressive origami flowers installation hangs from the ceiling, reminding the visitors the look of the japanese traditional sakura trees. The contrast between wood, concrete and paper, and the ambient lighting create a very warm and cozy ambient. Besides the excellent menu, it is not surprising that Nozomi has been considered one of the 10 most beautiful restaurants worldwide on 2015.

The location of this museum is a 1930’s art déco style industrial building. It used to be an hydraulic bombs factory. After a restoration, the building maintains its architectonic essence and nowadays, this huge art center harbors in its plants a wide collection of rotating and permanent  contemporary art pieces.

A welcome retreat from the bustle of the city. I really enjoyed spending the afternoon walking around the botanical gardens, taking pictures. It's home to thousands of species of plants and nearly as many cats.

On of my favorite places of Valencia, don't forget to visit their garden!
