Plaça de Bous de València — Attraction in Valencia

Amazing building to see, from outside and inside, seems like a small copy of Colloseum, which was inspiration for the building itself. The staff at the ticket office was friendly and helpful, communication was possible in English. IMPORTANT I strongly recommend you go to the museum first, ticket is 2 € if I am not mistaken, there you should be able to see what goes on in the bullfighting arena (video). For me and my travel companions the experience was not pleasant, pretty uncomfortable. I know that for the Spanish people this is centuries long tradition, and maybe it is something you should experience, but we left in the middle of the show (it lasts about 2 - 2,5 hours). The bulls came in the arena a bit confused, each bull "show" lasts for about 15-20 minutes, after that, at the end, they k**l the bull, if you can't handle that, I strongly advise you to not go to the bullfighting event. For all three that we did watch, the show was the same. For tourists like us, who are not used to this, we were uncomfortable watching the event, not to mention all three "shows" were the same. Kinda not what we expected, but you should try for yourself and judge by yourself. Also you can get cheaper tickets, for me personally, even if we would be in top row, we could see pretty good what goes on in the arena, so no point of spending a lot of money for tickets. For us it was a first time experience and...

Someone in the reviews wrote that this is not a place for “vegetarians” or “similar”. Indeed. This is not a place for any human with even the slightest bit of empathy for other living, feeling beings. Bullfighting is cruel, outdated, and will attract only the lowest most basic kind of people. How this is not illegal all over the world yet is beyond belief for any decent person with a sense of morale. Killing, injuring, taunting and causing pain to animals as a way of entertainment belongs in the Stone Ages. I highly recommend that NO ONE EVER VISITS BULLFIGHTING - places like this will go extinct eventually and those who ever participated will be condemned in the...

So close yet so far, finally after many many times of trying to find the entrance ( as it’s very well hidden) we got there only to be told the bullring was closed because of a tennis match, gutted. On up up side there we a very small museum which displayed past outfits worn by bull fighters. It was only €5 for 3 of us so very cheep, it was well kept but only one toilet. Not sure if it’s good for wheelchairs or prams as there are lots of steps, there was a underground car park opposite so not far to walk. All the information was in English and Spanish and the staff where...
