Gandia - It's Background
The people of Gandia and visitors can now enjoy a new heart to
the town. Gandia’s redesigned historic centre was opened at
the end of 1998, with the pedestrianisation of the Calle Mayor
and adjacent streets, the nerve-centre of the old town. The image
of a town centre choked by cars and unbearable traffic is now a
thing of the past. With this historic redesign the town’s
people have a better quality of life and pedestrians can now
enjoy a pleasant walk. The historic /commercial centre brings a
large collection of shops offering a huge variety of articles in
the vanguard of modern fashion. Several buildings are worth
discovering : Escuelas Pías, founded by Duke San Francisco
Borgia and given to the Company of Jesus is situated at the
entrance to the town’s historic centre. After a long
rehabilitation the building was inaugurated in 1998 recovering
its previous cultural and educational use with the relocation of
the Open University, the permanent Adult Education School and the
Scuole Pie.
Gandia - It's History
Gandia-traditionally named Ducal town is proud to be able to
offer a rich and beautiful historical heritage. In the effort to
keep its history alive and to considerate a diverse and high
quality tourism offer we should highlight the recovery of the
historic town centre as an important cultural area to show off
its richness.

Gandia has seen house prices increase substantially over the
last couple of years but it is still one of the cheapest areas to
buy in on the Costa Blanca. Terraced house can still be found for
£20,000 but will need some work doing on them.
