In this second edition of World Paella Day, new versions of the paella have been very curious.

Uruguay

, for example, has prepared it with high loin from the Río de la Plata, asparagus, colmenilla mushrooms and red pepper;

World Paella Day is an initiative promoted by public administrations to highlight the most emblematic Valencian dish.

This project is organized by the Valencia City Council, through Visit València, Turisme Comunitat Valenciana, the Valencia Provincial Council, through Turisme València, and Turespaña.

The initiative has the collaboration of FEHV, Arros de València DO, Wikipaella and Concurs Internacional de Paella Valenciana de Sueca.

One of the main objectives of the action, which is celebrated on International Paella Day, is to claim that Valencia is the territory of origin of it.

Throughout this year, actions will be developed in more than 30 countries in collaboration with Spanish Tourist Offices abroad.

From Paris to Oslo, passing through Moscow and Chicago, the actions in different parts of the planet will happen these days.
