Requena - A Day Trip from Valencia

• Train costs 4.75€ and takes 1h30. See Renfe's website for the timetable.

• Requena has a pleasant old town, but it's the wine you'll be coming for. Utiel Requena is the region's speciality, a red wine made from Bobal.
• The Fiesta de Vendimia (August 23 - Sepember 3) is Requena's big festival, where locals celebrate the end of the harvest. The most bizarre moment of the festival is the Noche de Zurra, where people march through the town asking God for good rain for the next harvest and get doused in water by people standing in the balconies above.
