The Church of St Nicholas, Valencia, is known as the Valencian Sistine Chapel, but I much preferred it to the one in the Vatican, because I didn’t have to queue for an hour and then fight a thousand tourists for space. The interior is stunning, the audio guide was- remarkably, as I don’t often say this- very good indeed, and the staff were rather lovely, particularly the lady looking after said audio guides. It’s very easy to miss the entrance to the church, but worth searching out.

It was a great experience and the audio guide worked really well. January was a great time to visit since not many people and you could really enjoy this amazing place. Just remember that the church is not open on Mondays for tourists.

Absolutely incredible church, founded in the 13th century by Dominicans, and they consecrated the temple to Saint Nicholas. In the 15th century it was extended in a Gothic temple with central aisle. Towards the end of the 17th century they started a baroque renovation. This temple is a perfect example of the coexistence of gothic architecture and baroque decoration. Absolutely the must place to visit in Valencia.

Gorgeous church totally worth the visit. The audio guide is short and to the point. Paintings are gorgeous This is a small church so you’ll be done in 45 min or less

It was difficult to get into this amazing church partly because whenever I was passing by the maine entrance was always closed and partly because I spent Christmas days in Valencia. Finally I realized that entry is possible only through the back door where the sign shows that this is the entrance to the parish. I can tell that it has been worth all the trying to get in, as I was blown away by the sight of the interior! It reminded me the San Antonio de los Alemanes in Madrid.

Having seen many churches and cathedrals, this by far is the most beautiful. It is a feast for the senses and the audio guide helps to locate the body and mind within this baroque masterpiece. The ceiling is a masterclass in making you think you are looking at a flat surface but as you move around you start to see that the ceiling has indentations for windows. The imagery on the ceiling matches the chapels below. The alter is an array of paintings, statuary and gold metal work. I took so many photos but they are minor moments when compared to standing in this beautiful place.

absolutley amazing can understand the reason why they say its the sistine chapel of spain it really is breathtaking would advice to pre buy tickets as this saves queuing for a long time that way you can jump the queue as we did and went straight in so well worth it

Visited this beautiful church and was not disappointed. It's pretty much the valencia sistine chapel. It is stunning. The ceilings are stunning. The audio guide came free too which was great to have the history. I would say it's a must see.

They call it the Valencian 'Sistine Chapel' and for a good reason! Located in the historic centre of Valencia, this little church is truly one of the best sights in the city! For a reduced cost, you can choose the conbined ticket that also includes Silk Museum and the Church of Santos Juanes, that are located nearby!

Please ensure you visit this beautiful church. The moment you enter and look at the ceiling, you will be in awe of the Incredible work. It's so so beautiful. Best seen in person. They provide audio guides which explains everything so well. They allow you to take pictures and videos. Enjoy the beautiful experience

I can’t believe that this church is not world famous. The art on the walls and ceilings is incredible. I found it more impressive than the Sistine Chapel. There are some great churches in Valencia but I thought this was the best, by far. Highly recommended.

It’s amazing. The paintings on the walls are incredible. If you are in Valencia, you mustn’t miss. You don’t need to buy ticket in advance.

We had seen many churches while in Spain and this was no exception ! Wow ! Beautiful building, architecture, paintings, statues, all stunning. Free audio guide with tickets. One to put on the TO DO list for sure .

A bit expensive, but for that everything was very well organized and you got a very informative audio guide with the ticket. The line seemed long at first, but it moved pretty quickly. Of course, it is worth buying a ticket in advance, because they have priority when entering.

Absolutely breathtaking place. Great audio guide as well. You can easily spent 1 hour here. It's really hidden from the outside.
