Valencia, with around 809,000 residents, is Spain's third-largest city and home to roughly 90,000 students between the Universitat de València and the Universitat Politècnica de València. The districts of Ruzafa, El Carmen and Benimaclet form the centre of student life, with bars in old market halls, live music and cheap rents. From the Fallas festival in March to the former riverbed of the Jardí del Túria and the beach bars on the Mediterranean, city life here takes place outdoors all year round.
