In the year 1094, Rodrigo Díaz de Vivar, called El Cid Campeador, conquered Valencia on behalf of the Christians, but the city later fell to the Almoravids in 1102. Following the Moorish domination, it was in 1238 that Jaime I of Aragon finally reconquered the city, and founded the Kingdom of Valencia, with its characteristic legislative privileges (Furs). During the 15th and 16th centuries, Valencia became one of the major economic powers on the Mediterranean seaboard. It was the time of the Valencian siglo de oro (Golden Age), which was characterized by splendour in the arts at the hands of Joanot Martorell (author of Tirant lo Blanc, the first modern European novel), Ausias March, Roig de Corella, Isabel de Villena, Jordi de Sant Jordi and Jaume Roig, among others. During the War of Spanish Succession, Valencia sided with archduke Charles of Austria, and after the victory of the Borbons at the Battle of Almansa (April 1707), Felipe V abolished the local privileges (Fueros). In 1874, Alfonso XII was proclaimed constitutional king at Sagunto city in the north of Valencia. When democracy was restored, the Land of Valencia was given its present Autonomous Statutes in 1982. The history of the city, now the capital of the Land of Valencia, is both rich and varied, providing a patrimony that has converted it into one of the major cities in Spain on both cultural and economic levels. Valencia is now the capital of Valencia Region, and counts with 800,000 censed people. This rich history can be traced in all the city … just take a guided walk tour in the city center to see all this rich patrimony! Enjoy the 21th Century part of the city by visiting the 'Ciutat de les Arts I les Ciències' If you stay till 9th October, you could see the Valencia' day celebration with institutional parades with the descending of Valencia flag through the City Hall, and taste the traditional Gargoyle with bat wings, is an icon of the and unique sweets and cakes of this day (see pictures at left). city of Valencia which is present in the city blazon.

Colour and design are at your own free well … be an artist creating the most attractive poster!! Before printing your poster consider to ask to your travel agency about your travel with it. As we have been informed that some low-cost companies are asking for a extra cost for the poster plastic container as they consider it another hand baggage… or some are lost if sent along your baggage. One idea is to print your poster on special tissue (named Fabritex® in Spain …) that allows you to fold your printed poster and kept it with your clothes in your main baggage without too much creasing. Ask in your printer service as this is becoming very popular („canvas‟ will not allow you to fold your poster and get it later without creasing) within overseas delegates in scientific congresses. Remember to send a pdf of your poster by 20th September (to [email protected]) for its inclusion in the USB key with all the information of the 8th ISFFEI.
