Valencia - Plaza del Ayuntamiento

To the south of the Plaza del Ayuntamiento, beside the Estación del Norte, is the Plaza de Toros, one of Spain's largest bullrings, with seating for 18,000. Attached to it is the interesting Museo Taurino (Bullfighting Museum).

At the northern tip of the Plaza del Ayuntamiento, running northeast/southwest, is Valencia's main street, Calle de San Vicente, the northern part of which is particularly busy.

On the west side of the Plaza del Ayuntamiento is the Ayuntamiento or Casa Consistorial, in which are the Municipal Library and the Municipal Historical Museum, with pictures, weapons and jewellery and a valuable collection of books.
