Llíria

Llíria is a municipality in the Camp de Túria region northwest of Valencia. The town spreads across a Mediterranean landscape and serves as an administrative center with neighborhoods and local services.

The settlement originated in antiquity as Edeta, an important Iberian city around the 6th century BC. Roman conquest transformed it into a significant center that left behind baths and burial structures.

Two musical societies shape local life here, with the Banda Primitiva and Unió Musical performing regularly in concerts and competitions. This tradition of orchestras and bands runs deep in how residents understand their community.

The municipality connects to Valencia via the CV-35 motorway, offering easy access to the region's facilities and services. Visiting by car is the most convenient way to explore the area and reach nearby attractions.

Archaeological discoveries include ceramic pieces from the 3rd century BC showing musicians and dancers portrayed in detail. These finds connect the town's modern musical culture to traditions that flourished millennia ago.
