Tour: 3
From the central market we walk to the old riverbed of Turia river(now a park) to see the Falla of Na Jordana.
We arrive at the confluence of the Quart and the Caballeros streets by the Tossal square, an area with a lot of bars and cafés. We can try 'Agua de Valencia' (alcoholic mixed drink) in some of the cafes in this square.
We can continue down the Quart street to reach Quart towers in the area where there are interesting fallas in various categories. From there we continue towards the river and Falla Na Jordana
From there we can get to Plaza the la Virgen, where the flower offering takes place. In the map appears the Plaza de la Virgen, where is located the cathedral. The cathedral tower is called 'El Miguelete', you can get to the top and enjoy nice sights of all Valencia. In this cathedral is kept the 'real' Grial.
Route from the Falla Merced to Falla Na Jordana.

Suggested route Merced-Na Jordana via Quart
Route Na Jordana-Plaza de la Virgen
Falla Na Jordana is one of the most important. Is located in the edge of the old center of Valencia, and if we are only going to see the Fallas in the center, it's the farest we are going to see, but it normally worths.
To get back to the center we will follow the riverbed and see some other fallas in our way, take the Serranos street to the Virgen square.
In this square takes place the offering of flowers. If it's taking place in that moment, it's better to take the Caballeros street to go back to Tossal square and from there to the city council square.
