Favara can be explored through two distinct themes: redesigned public spaces and the historic Acequia de Favara, whose route runs through Patraix. Plaza Favara has a children’s play area and a picnic area; the canal offers a broader regional perspective, extending to the rice fields around Albufera de València. Additional information concerns pedestrian traffic in the Favara neighbourhood and a connection between Safranar and l’Hort de Senabre. Depending on your interests, you can focus on the design of public spaces or the context of the Acequia.

Plaza Favara and Pedestrian Traffic

Plaza Favara has a children’s play area and a picnic area. The square’s infrastructure is permanent, but may change. If you plan to make specific use of these facilities, check their condition before your visit.

A new pedestrian area was created in the Favara neighbourhood following the completion of its redesign. Folch de Cardona and Ramón de Perellós streets, along with adjacent areas, were redesigned for pedestrian traffic. The street names provide specific reference points; at the same time, the redesign also includes adjacent areas.

The report also describes a completed, safe pedestrian connection between Safranar and l’Hort de Senabre. This connection should be distinguished from the pedestrian area in the Favara neighbourhood: here, two neighbourhoods are the reference points, while there, the focus is on named streets and adjacent areas. The two measures can therefore be understood as different forms of pedestrian planning.

Acequia de Favara in Local and Regional Context

Near Favara, the historic route of the Acequia de Favara runs through Patraix. An information board is located at the intersection of Fray Mateu and Beato Nicolás Factor streets. The city’s Ruta por Patraix also lists La Acequia de Favara as one of its entries; the route information may change. If you plan to use this information for a specific journey, check the current Ruta por Patraix beforehand.

Further afield in the region, the Acequia de Favara runs from Quart de Poblet to the rice fields around Albufera de València. The local information in Patraix and this longer route serve different purposes for orientation: the information board locates one point on the historic route, while the broader context places the canal in relation to the rice fields, from Quart de Poblet onwards. If you are interested in irrigation landscapes, this regional perspective offers a different focus from Favara’s redesigned pedestrian areas.

Centro Cívico Favara

Use of the Centro Cívico Favara is also subject to conditions. Certain time-limited activities may be requested by duly established organisations and associations, provided they are registered in the City of Valencia’s Register of Citizen Organisations. The applicable procedures may change. If you are planning a specific activity as part of such an organisation, check the applicable conditions beforehand.
