Cathedral de Santa Maria

Reviewed By michaelmZ4999YD - Ascoli Piceno, Italy

I was fortunate to visit both the cathedral and the bell tower of the Cathedral of Santa Maria. The inside of the cathedral is stunning and ornate, but not crazy in terms of it being ostentatious. There is an extreme reverence as you walk around and considering the various chapels. The architecture both inside and out is stunning and its various styles, because of a number of various things that occurred when it was being built, are both interesting and beautiful. If you decide to take the bell tower tour, you will be glad you did. The tour is in Spanish, but there is a really helpful English handout that will tell you most everything you would hear from your tour guide. It is 19 floors up and the majority of it is a rather shallow sloping ramp, so it is reasonable if you concerned because of health. There is a small tower staircase at the top to get to the bell tower, but it is not long and it is certainly worth the visit. I was fortunate to go with some local people, but met Americans in our group. It was well worth the two or so hours I spent both inside and out. There are a number of wonderful little places to eat near by if you need to wait.

A stunning cave church near Calasparra. A picnic area below & alongside the river with BBQ pitches. A very small museum just past the church entrance. Cafe/restaurant past both doors. WC's near the picnic area with refreshment stands which seem tobe seasonal.

El Real Casino de Murcia (Royal Casino of Murcia) is an emblematic building in the city of Murcia. Its unique architecture combines modernist and eclectic artistic styles, and the beauty of the building awakes the admiration of all visitors. In fact, it is the most visited civil building in Murcia. It is situated in the heart of the city centre, on Calle Trapería, close to the Cathedral.

Castle Of Lorca

The Castle of Lorca is the hallmark of the city, symbol of power and the incessant struggle between the Nasrid kingdom of Granada and the Crown of Castile. The castle-fortress is a place where history is lived first hand through exhibitions, workshops for the whole family, guided tours and extraordinary activities throughout the year. In this space, Ben Sakar (the Hawk's Son), the virtual mascot of the castle will show you scenarios as emblematic as the walls, the stables, the cisterns, the Tower of the Spur, the Tower Alfonsina or the Jewish Synagogue.

How could I have forgotten about this part of the Roman Empire? Choosing the walking tour here was a great opportunity to take a step back into time. It was amazing to understand the city's history back to 200 BC. Our guide pointed out the significant features of the 6,000 capacity theater, the carrera marble, the "Hen House" (where the rich wives sat and clucked, clucked, clucked) Absolutely fabulous.
