Some neighbourhoods are worth visiting, while others are best explored without a fixed destination. Valencia\u2019s El Carmen belongs to the second category. Located in the heart of the historic centre, it combines centuries of history with a contemporary cultural and artistic scene that reveals itself as you wander through its streets\u2014and it is only a few minutes\u2019 walk from Mythic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
El Carmen is one of the most distinctive neighbourhoods in Valencia\u2019s historic centre. Its streets preserve buildings, squares and architectural features that tell the city\u2019s story. At the same time, their fa\u00e7ades have become canvases for a new generation of artists. This coexistence of heritage and urban art is precisely one of the neighbourhood\u2019s greatest attractions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Urban art has found a privileged place in the streets of Valencia, and El Carmen is one of its finest examples. Its streets are filled with murals and contemporary artistic expressions, many of them directly integrated into the neighbourhood\u2019s architecture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There is no single route to follow: part of the appeal lies in exploring and allowing yourself to be surprised. A door, a shutter, a blank wall or a small square can unexpectedly become the setting for a new work of art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After exploring the neighbourhood, the route can continue towards the great monuments of Valencia\u2019s city centre. La Lonja de la Seda, Valencia Cathedral, El Miguelete, the Central Market and the Serranos Towers form part of a heritage landscape that can be discovered almost entirely on foot. This possibility of exploring the city by walking is precisely what makes choosing the right place to stay so important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mythic is located on Calle Poeta Monmeneu, next to the Turia Gardens and very close to the Serranos Towers. From there, simply cross the bridge to reach El Carmen on foot\u2014a location designed for travellers who want to discover Valencia without constantly relying on a car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The connection between Mythic and art is no coincidence. The project was created with the intention of bringing together hospitality, architecture, the city and urban art. The former industrial building was restored while preserving its architectural character, creating a space where design and art play a leading role. Two large murals by PichiAvo form part of the hotel experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This makes it possible to begin the day surrounded by urban art, head out to discover El Carmen and return in the afternoon to a hotel that continues telling the same story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Valencia is best understood on foot, and El Carmen is one of those places you should not miss.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
