The Kings, thirty years later

In the beginning, in the Seventies, Don Juan Carlos spoke of the Kingdom when it wanted to name what today we called Valencian Community. Kingdom of Valencia was and is normal that a monarch uses the title that shows to name this corner of Spain. Perhaps after that name I discover an interesting small oral tradition that it took to the Prince to use the listened to word from in family, inherited of the distant time of the grandparents.
At noon of today, in Ontinyent, an official trip from the Kings to the province of Valencia begins that is going away to prolong until afternoon of Thursday. Almost thirty years after that first trip of autumn of 1976, Don Juan Carlos and Doña Sofía, that has followed year after year the pulse of the spectacular change that has taken place in the Valencian Community, approach two regions nails, Ontinyent-Albaida and Utiel-Requena, in the course of a trip in which they are going to dedicate time, in addition, to live the celebration on the faults, to know AINIA, the America Glass and the changes had in the port.
