Albarracín & Teruel Day Trip from Valencia — Medieval Village and Mudéjar Art

Albarracín and Teruel: a day among medieval walls and Mudéjar towers

Travel back in time in a single day: Albarracín, a medieval village of reddish houses hanging above the Guadalaviar river, and Teruel, city of the Lovers and of Mudéjar art declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. One of the most spectacular cultural day trips near Valencia, about two hours by coach.

With ValenciaTribe there’s no driving or parking: we leave by private coach from Mestalla, with a coordinator and a group keen to explore.

Albarracín, one of the most beautiful villages in Spain

We explore Albarracín’s old town on a guided tour: cobbled streets, reddish plaster houses with wooden balconies, corners like the Casa de la Julianeta and the Plaza Mayor overlooking the river.

Climb up to the medieval walls to see the whole village at your feet, with the cathedral tower rising above the rooftops — one of the most photographed views in Aragon.

Teruel, city of Mudéjar art and the Lovers

In the afternoon we reach Teruel: the Neo-Mudéjar Staircase, the towers of El Salvador and San Martín, the cathedral and Plaza del Torico. Free time for lunch (Teruel ham is a must) and to discover the legend of the Lovers of Teruel.
