| CARTAGENA
FEATURED SELF-CATERING / VACATION & HOLIDAY RENTAL ACCOMMODATION |
|
| Cartagena is a Spanish Mediterranean
city and naval station in the southeast of the Iberian Peninsula in the
Autonomous Community of the Region of Murcia. Cartagena has been the capital
of the Spanish Navy's Maritime Department of the Mediterranean since the
arrival of the Spanish Bourbons in the eighteenth century. As far back
as the sixteenth century it was one of the most important naval ports in
Spain, together with Ferrol in the North. |
|
| It is a walled town
and has a fine harbour defended by forts. In the time of Philip II of Spain,
it was a major naval seaport of Spain. It is still an important naval seaport,
the main military haven of Spain, and there is a big naval shipyard. Thanks
to its strategic position on the Mediterranean, Cartagena has been inhabited
by many different cultures which have left their mark on its rich cultural
heritage during a glorious and turbulent history.
The “Cartagena, Port of Cultures”
initiative was created to allow visitors to enjoy a wide range of activities
and visits, discovering the cultural wealth and rich history of the city.
It’s one of the several projects to energize the tourist possibilities
of this potential major cultural destination, frequently overshadowed by
the mass-tourism due to the proximity of several holiday resorts, and the
refinery and the industrial development which yielded a bad reputation
to the city because of pollution, now fortunately eradicated. |

Murcia this Summer by Gen Wright
Murcia is a city that is
filled with architectural wonders and really is a treasure chest for those
who wish to indulge in old architectural delights. They are beautifully
constructed and painstakingly maintained buildings. You will be hard put
to choose between them on a short trip, but every place you visit will
be worth it.
 You
can start with The Murcia Cathedral - Murcia is a city of many churches
and this can be considered to be the central amongst them. It dates back
from the 14th to the 18th century. It is famous for the Puerta del Perdin,
the gothic chapel, the Junterones chapel and most visibly - the ninety
six meter tower that has twenty five bells!
You can then go to the casino,
which is not a functioning casino but a beautifully made building. It was
completed towards the end of the 19th century and is a fine piece of period
architecture. It has a Moorish entrance hall, a Morrocan ballroom and a
breathtaking patio that is located centrally and done up in Pompeian styles.
The nest stop on your tour
can be the Murcia fountain. This is not just another big fountain; it is
the big fountain that sits at probably the busiest junction in the city.
It has beautiful water jets spouting up from all over the place across
the huge area that is covered by the fountain. As you sit down in the middle
of really busy traffic, it might feel like life has slowed down for you
and whilst you can see everyone going about their work, you may be overcome
by a pleasant and relaxing sensation.
There are plenty of transport
options when it comes to exploring Murcia and its surrounding areas. Local
trains and buses are affordable and regular while if arriving at the airport
you may wish to avail of a Murcia Airport car hire service. This area of
Spain is simply stunning and cruising the region by road at your own pace
is really something to experience.
Onwards with the relaxing
tour, you can next go to the Town hall square of Murcia. As the name suggests,
it is right in front of the town hall in the city of Murcia and it is famous
for its beautifully created and maintained gardens. The whole area is always
dotted with tourists and other visitors. Since the setting is very picturesque,
it is an ideal place to snap some nice pictures of the town hall square
and the entire garden.
You can then head back to
the cathedral square and cool off after a long day of travel and sightseeing.
This square is the place to get a few drinks and take nice long break between
the Cathedral and the Palacio Episcopal.
