Valencia's Modernista jewel is a feast for the senses. Over 1000 stalls sell fresh produce under gorgeous stained-glass domes and iron columns. Built between 1914 and 1928, the market covers more than 8000 sq metres and is one of the largest fresh-food markets in Europe. Come for the oranges, stay for the paella ingredients, leave with the conviction that Valencians eat better than anyone.
