Located in La Hoya de Buñol in the province of Valencia, Cheste is known for its streets lined with traditional houses and a modern motorsport circuit. This pretty town is packed with authentic sites and experiences that we encourage you to enjoy, following the information in this short guide.
What to see in Cheste
We recommend pulling on some walking shoes and exploring the manor houses. You will notice that they are built in a characteristic way: they are 2 or 3 storeys high, have a large door that a horse-drawn carriage could pass through and wrought iron balconies.
An example of these buildings is the town hall, a unique construction that is steeped in history. As you wander around, make sure you keep your eyes peeled for the lovely ceramic altarpieces decorating the streets. You’ll come across pretty plazas and narrow streets in La Morería, a district whose layout will transport you back in time.
San Lucas Evangelista Parish Church in Cheste is built in the late Baroque style with some nods to the Neoclassical style. It dates back to the 18th century. Take some time to nose around inside and look at the chapels. Next, head to La Virgen de la Soledad Chapel and the ruins of an old flour mill dating back to the early 19th century. In spring, the streets of Cheste fill with street art thanks to the highly anticipated event Graffitea, which is one not to miss.
And there’s still a lot more to do in Cheste. Venture into the natural landscapes to undertake beautiful hikes along routes like Barranco Hondo and La Manga where you will see dry stone structures and interesting fauna and flora. You can also walk to La Lomiquia recreational area, which is close to the centre.
Last but not least, we recommend checking out the event schedule for Cheste circuit, Circuit Ricardo Tormo, an iconic track whose motorcycling and Formula 1 races have made the Region of Valencia a leader in the world of motorsports. The atmosphere on race day is always amazing. You have to come and soak it all up. See you there?
