What to do in Meliana
Meliana is a vibrant town defined by the idyllic architecture of the traditional Valencian farmhouses. Tradition is notable in the local cuisine of this sunny destination too. Start your tour of the town by admiring the impressive blue tiled façade of the old Bernardo Vidal tile factory, located conveniently right next to the metro station.
Let’s continue our tour of Meliana with a visit to the 16th-century Santos Juanes Parish Church, located on the main square where a beautiful building from the 19th century also stands. Next, you could visit MOSMEL, Meliana’s Fine Art Gallery and admire the great works of local artists.
Next on the tour is Nuestra Señora de la Misericordia Chapel, which was built in the late 20th century. You can then walk or cycle to the unspoiled Meliana beach, located just a few kilometres away from the centre and relax with the sound of the gentle waves in the background.
To reach the seafront, you’ll walk through the pretty neighbourhood of Roca - a foodie haven in the heart of farmland that also has a train station. Take a stroll around to admire the typical housefronts and neat fields brimming with fresh produce.
To round off the trip, we recommend setting off along the Vía Verde Xurra to soak up the pretty surroundings. Or check out the impressive architecture of Nolla Palace which was built in the 18th century. Spend a few blissful days in a place as special as Meliana.
