Valencia is the third largest city in Spain after Madrid and Barcelona. Founded as a Roman colony in 138 BC. it got its name from the Romans. (The city's name 'Valencia' means strength and Valor, honoring Roman soldiers.) The middle ages saw the invasion of the Germanic peoples and overtaking by the church which changed Roman buildings into religious buildings. The city then surrendered without a fight to invading Moors 714 AD. In 1238, King James I of Aragon, with an army of Aragonese, Catalans, Navarrese and the crusaders from the order of Calatrava, laid siege to Valencia; and on September 28, the city surrendered. A mixture of Jewish, Christians and Muslims, were all allowed to remain in the city as history moved forward with all its nuances until the present day. What we have today is a beautiful city filled with art, culture and a lot of fun things for a kid to see and to do1 You can see some of what award winning author, attorney and former teacher, Penelope Dyan and photographer, John D.
