“This architectural unit used to be part of the Carmelite convent and elements still remain from this time such as the cloister, with its pointed arches, the refectory and the conference room. The whole place was extended in the Baroque style; just next to the main entrance is the dome of the chapel of Nuestra Señora del Carmen, an oval-shaped temple designed by one of those responsible for bringing the neo-Classical style to Valencia, Vicente Gasco.” (Basílica de la Virgen de los Desamparados, Valencia City Guide)
