We all love to travel abroad to know other countries and other cultures, and with that we stop knowing parts of our country that are very much worth it. One of those places is Cheste, in the province of Valencia, a town well known especially for hosting one of the most spectacular motorcycle circuits in the world and to which thousands of people come every year to see the Grand Prix.
With an area of about 70 square kilometers, it is 26 kilometers from Valencia capital, right in the center of the province. Throughout its history it housed different civilizations, the Muslim being the one that has left the most mark. Cheste has many places of interest, so take note of the must-see ones to make your trip more productive:

It is in the heart of Cheste and is the most representative building of it. It was built in the century XVIII as a great symbol of power, and it has a tower 50 meters high.
