What to see in La Vall d’Uixó
A great place to start your exploration of La Vall d’Uixó is Sant Josep or La Font Cave, an underground river populated with stalactites and stalagmites where you can take boat rides. This La Vall d’Uixó cave promises adventure for all the family as well as living history tours and music performances on certain dates.
But beyond this spectacular cave, La Vall d’Uixó is home to a site where history has left behind archaeological remains of incalculable worth. Sant Josep Iberian Settlement is open to the public via guided tours so you can explore the Iberian and Roman ruins.
Once you’ve visited the ancient settlement head to Línea XYZ, a defence line stretching from Cuenca to Almenara built in 1938. Here you will see trenches and other defence structures used during the Spanish Civil War.
If you like walking, the San José and La Alcudia aqueducts make excellent excuses for a trail. From here, you’re just a stone’s throw from the historic centre of the town where you can pop into the town market and visit the contemporary art gallery. Once your hunger sets in, get your hands on some delicious sweet manjòvena, but make sure you leave some room for a dish of arroz empedrat. And then continue your time in the centre by visiting the chapels, towers and churches. Full of geology, history and archaeology, La Vall d’Uixó is a destination you won’t want to miss.
