If you are travelling on lines 3 or 5 of the metro, we suggest you stop off at La Alameda, an important example of the Valencian architecture designed by Santiago Calatrava. The station is located underneath the Exposicion bridge, which is another jewel in the crown of this Valencian architect and is not to be missed.
