Shopping Valencia, a guide to variety of stores

Here are a few voices about shopping in Valencia Spain:

Valencia's biggest shopping center Nuevo Centro. A nother centra for shooping is: The Mercado Central, home to a large daily food market. Built in 1928, it is a huge glass and metal structure filled with Valencians buying fresh local produce.

The best time to visit the market is on weekday mornings. You will be treated to colourful displays of fruits & vegetables, including lots of oranges!

You also find fish or seafood here! Along with all type of poultry. And of course there are many cuts of meat on offer as well - There are also places to buy a coffee/drink or a hot meal if you become ravenous after seeing all of the delicious raw ingredients. All great for shopping-valencia. I recommend a visit to the market. It is a great way to get a taste for the Valencian way of life.

This is Spains answer for shops like Selfridges,Galerie Lafayette,Galleria Inno,Kaufhof etc.In the city center of Valencia you find at least four El Cortes Ingles department stores. You can buy almost everything and there are always a few restaurants and coffee houses in the building. Super for shopping-valencia, From degigner clothes till computers etc

Depends on what you want to buy

It's a pedestrian street in the center of Valencia, next to Calle Colon (subway stop - Colon). There are lots of shoe stores on this street and of course Zara, Mango and El Corte Ingles where you can shop

If you are lucky to catch the sales (July, January) you can get great bargains. In shops like Zara and Mango you can even get 80% off. The only thing you have to worry about is putting all you bought in your suitcase.
