Overview

One of Spain's most beautiful palaces, it's a brilliant example of rococo architecture with a wonderful Churrigueresque facade that looks like running water. The imposing alabaster main entrance was designed by Hipólito Rovira and sculpted by Ignacio Vergara. The original building dates from the 16th century although it was completely renovated during the 18th. Have a look at the luxurious ballroom inside and visit the fabulous Ceramics Museum.

What a very lucky place!by Yahoo | 2008-03-03 14:35:28 |

So i was going to go look at some monkeys when this little monkey came up and gave me purse. there was $700 so aside from the obvious health problems and the poor living conditions it was a very rewarding experience!

Very Pretty Palaceby Yahoo | 2005-02-11 12:53:16 |

The Palace is amazing to see, the bedrooms, ballroom, courtyard, staircase etc. The ceramics museum part isn´t that interesting however it does give a good history of cerammics in Valencia. One neat fact was that Valencia had the secret as to how to make golden ceramics which were valued around the world because at the time no one else knew how to make them. Its worth a look around.
