VALENCIA. CIUTAD VELLA DE NOCHE - a photo on Flickriver

PLAZA DE LA VIRGEN

Plaza de la Virgen è per eccellenza uno di luoghi d’incontro e di passaggio di Valencia. Rappresenta infatti il fulcro vitale di moltissimi eventi e appuntamenti, oltre ad accogliere intorno a se moltissime attrazioni e luoghi d’interesse storico e culturale.
Con la sua bellissima facciata a tinte pastello e l’imponente cupola, la Basilica della Vergine è un emblema della piazza. Soprattuto per il grande attaccamento che tutti i valenciani hanno verso questo edificio.
Uno dei nomi con cui si chiamava in passato questa piazza era “Plaça de la Seu”, in riferimento proprio all’adiacente Cattedrale di Valencia.
Come detto, la piazza costituisce un punto di ritrovo importantissimo per tutti: valenciani e non.
Plaza de la Virgen è lo scenario di uno degli eventi più emozionanti e significativi della festa delle Fallas. Si tratta dell’Ofrenda de Flores alla Virgen de los Desemparados (letteramente dei “senza tetto”), durante il quale viene allestita nel centro della piazza un grande telaio di legno raffiguarante appunto la Vergine.

PLAZA DE LA VIRGEN

Plaza de la Virgen is one of the meeting and passage places of Valencia par excellence. In fact, it represents the vital hub of many events and appointments, in addition to welcoming around itself many attractions and places of historical and cultural interest.
With its beautiful pastel-colored façade and the imposing dome, the Basilica of the Virgin is an emblem of the square. Above all for the great attachment that all Valencians have towards this building.
One of the names with which this square was called in the past was "Plaça de la Seu", in reference to the adjacent Cathedral of Valencia.
As mentioned, the square is a very important meeting point for everyone: Valencians and non-Valencians.
Plaza de la Virgen is the setting for one of the most exciting and significant events of the Fallas festival. This is the Offering of Flowers to the Virgen de los Desemparados (literally of the “homeless”), during which a large wooden frame depicting the Virgin is set up in the centre of the square.
