Albaida: Ajuntament d'Albaida - Museu Internacional de Titelles d'Albaida (MITA) - Jardins del Palau dels Milà i Aragó d'Albaida
The Vall d’Albaida defines the setting of Albaida — this inland Valencian town spreads across a broad cultivated valley beneath the Serra d’Agullent. Its old centre retains close-knit streets, tiled roofs and the substantial Palau dels Milà i Aragó, a former noble residence that gives the town centre much of its civic identity. The palace and its gardens stand beside the Ajuntament d’Albaida, and its rooms house the Museu Internacional de Titelles d’Albaida (MITA), devoted to puppetry from different countries. Albaida is also known for the hand-ringing of church bells, a local tradition maintained by the town’s bell ringers. The Vall d’Albaida has long connected settlements between the Valencian coast and the interior.

The Valencian Community has served as a Mediterranean cultural crossroads within eastern Spain since the Middle Ages. Its coastline on the Balearic Sea extends from the Costa del Azahar to the Costa Blanca, while the Turia and Júcar rivers cross fertile plains inland. Valencia, the regional capital, was the centre of the medieval Kingdom of Valencia, founded in 1238, and preserves the Silk Exchange, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Rice cultivation around the Albufera lagoon informs local cooking, including paella, while the annual Fallas festivities fill Valencia with sculpture, fire and civic ritual.

Spain extends from the Cantabrian coast to the Canary Islands, encompassing Atlantic shores, Mediterranean beaches and the broad interior Meseta. The Pyrenees form its northeastern frontier, while the Guadalquivir crosses Andalusia on its way to the Atlantic. Madrid anchors the country’s political and cultural life, but distinct regional identities are central to Spain’s character: Catalonia, the Basque Country, Galicia and Andalusia each have their own languages or strong local traditions. Granada’s Alhambra is a major monument of the medieval Nasrid dynasty, and Santiago de Compostela remains the destination of the Camino de Santiago.
