The Valencia bullring is a bullring in Valencia, in the Valencian Community in Spain where the Fallas bullfighting fair is held. Architect - Sebastián Monleón and Estellés. Construction - 1798-1859; Inauguration - June 22, 1859; Capacity - 12,884 That’s about facts. The building is impressive, definitely worth to see.

This bullfight arena is enormous in size; I've never seen one quite like it. It's likely that not many such arenas exist worldwide due to its controversial nature and increasingly debated pastime.

It looks so beautiful and impossible to pass by it without standing in admiration. They don’t make them like this anymore. I can’t wait to watch a bull fight in the ring. It’s very close to the train station (estación del nord) which itself is very beautiful. You can also walk around it and admire its beauty more
