Metro/Tramway
The best option to arrive to the entrance of the “Parc Científic” is by Tramway Line 4. The city centre station is “Pont de Fusta”. Please allow 45 minutes for traveling from this station to the symposium venue. This tram-line has several destinations you easily
will see at its front:
1 - “Ll. Llarga/Terramelar”
2 - “Mas del Rosari”
3 - “Vicente Andrés Estelles”
The first and second destinations stop at “TVV”, the nearest station to
IFIC (as you get off the tramway, look ahead for the red building after the
round-about with the inscription “Parc Científic” on top of it).
The third one finishes at the previous station, “Vicente Andrés Estelles”,
10 minutes walking to the “Parc Científic”.
The destination you will see the way back to the city centre is “Dr Lluch”.
The pass frequency is less than ten minutes. This is zone A, you can find
fares and more information at the Metro webpage.
Bus
Take line 63 (to “Noves Facultats”), stop at “Vicente Andrés Estelles”, and
the “Parc Científic” is 10 minutes walking from there. Pass frequency 8-15 minutes but only during
university class time. There are several bus or Metro transfer stops along
its way.
By car
Go to “Nuevo Centro” by the old river way (now transformed
in parks and entertaiment facilities). Then take “Pio XII” Avenue
towards North (this avenue and the following highway is commonly known
as “Pista de Ademuz”). Take the exit number 4 (“Paterna, Burjassot”)
by its variant to “Burjassot, Centre TVV, Fira de Mostres y Universitat”.
Enter the big round-about and take the fourth exit towards the back side of
the Television centre. The IFIC is part of the “Parc Científic”, the red buildings you will be seeing ahead.
By taxi
Ask to be carried to the rear entrance of the Television centre in Burjassot
(“a la entrada trasera de la Television Valenciana en Burjassot”).
Once there ask to follow ahead towards the red building you will be seeing
near in front of you (approximately 15 euros from downtown or from airport).
By train
Once you arrive to the Central Railway Station of Valencia (there are
two secondary stations more) you will find a line 63 bus stop at the left
of the exit. Ahead you will find “Xativa” station of the Metro
line 3. By Metro you should go towards “Mislata/Almasil” and
transfer to the line 1 at the next first stop, “Angel Guimerá”.
Then continue to “Empalme” station and transfer to the tramway
towards “TVV” or “Fira”.
By plane
The airport is connected with the centre of the city through Metro line 5
(“Airport/Torrent Avinguda - Neptú”) and line 3 (“Airport/Palmaret - Rafelbunyol”)
with a frequency of approximately every 10-20 minutes. If you plan to go directly
from the airport to the conference venue, we suggest you to take a taxi, following
the instructions given above.
