It is important to be mindful of local customs when visiting Valencia. It is considered impolite to be late for social engagements, so it is important to arrive on time. It is also important to dress modestly, as revealing clothing is considered inappropriate. Additionally, it is important to be respectful of religious sites and to avoid taking photographs without permission. Finally, it is important to be aware of the local language and to avoid speaking English in public, as this can be seen as rude.
