Paid parking

There are several possibilities to find paid parking in the streets of Valencia. Paid parking zones are marked with a blue line. For these spots there is a limited time, very often your not aloud to park your car in a blue zone for more then two hours.

Free parking

Looking for free parking in Valencia? A great option is to park along the Paseo de la Alameda, which runs right next to the beautiful Turia Park and is only a short walk from the historic city centre.

You’ll often find locals standing near the parking spaces pointing out free spots and asking for a small tip. Whether or not you give them something and how much is entirely up to you.

There are two main areas along the Alameda where it’s usually easy to find parking:

The stretch between the Flower Bridge (Puente de las Flores) and the Jardines de Viveros. Keep in mind that this area regularly hosts running events and processions. When that happens, signs are put up indicating that parking is temporarily prohibited if you miss the sign, your car may be towed.

The other section is closer to the City of Arts and Sciences (Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias). Events are less frequent here, but it’s a bit farther from the city centre.

So, if you’re looking for a convenient and free place to park near Turia Park, Paseo de la Alameda is a great choice, just keep an eye out for event signs before leaving your car.

Gas stations

In the map you can also check gas stations. You can recognize them by the brown coloured gas station signs in the map.
