Jardín del Túria

The Turia Gardens are 9 miles of an old river bed running through the centre of Valencia. They were formed many years ago when Valencia experienced a mass of flooding and so the river was diverted leaving behind lushes conditions for these beautiful gardens to flourish. It is so peaceful here and full of culture and leisure activities. We heard there was a free yoga class every sunday morning so a few of us gave it ago, but unfortunately it was not for me! However, my friend Suzanne in the picture here took a liking to it and attends regularly! The gardens are always buzzing with people and make a great contrast from the city centre.
