Alaquàs Map Poster & Print

Alaquàs lies in the Horta Sud, the ring of towns just west of Valencia, and on a map it is hard to say exactly where it ends. Its streets run straight into those of Aldaia and Xirivella, forming one continuous fabric of apartment blocks, narrow lanes and small squares. Only toward the south and west does the pattern open into fields of the old huerta and into industrial estates.

The town's best-known building is its castle-palace, a Renaissance residence with four corner towers that stands in the old centre. On the map it appears as a square block surrounded by tighter streets, the point from which the historic core grew. Around it, later growth followed the roads leading toward Valencia, filling the space with regular blocks during the second half of the twentieth century.

An Alaquàs map poster captures that suburban density in fine detail. Printed in black and white, the old core reads as a knot of short, irregular lanes, the newer districts as a tidy grid, and the remaining huerta as open space at the margins. Framed wide enough, the edge of Valencia itself becomes part of the composition, placing the town firmly in its metropolitan setting.
