With more than 300 days of sun per year in Valencia it can be pretty hot, especially in summer months. The most delicious refreshment is for sure ice cream. There are many ice cream spots in Valencia, but where do you get the best ice cream? We made a list with the best spots to get your ice cream in Valencia.
Llinares
Llinares has different locations and one of those is located at Plaza de la Reina. There are dozens of flavours at Llinares. Call one and you get it!
