Where Alaquàs is
Alaquàs is a town in l'Horta Sud, very close to València to the west, known above all for its Renaissance castle-palace, one of the best preserved in the comarca. If you want to use the visit to see more of the area, Torrent, the largest town in l'Horta Sud, is a short distance away.
