CULTURE AND HISTORY

 

Crammed full of history and culture, its museums, galleries, churches and monuments are the perfect foil for some time away from the beach. And all of them can be easily seen in a city break! On hot summer nights enjoy open-air concerts in the elegant green spaces of the parks and public squares of the city, whilst its modern promenades lined with cafes, bars and restaurants give the city a cosmopolitan feel.  In the evening the ‘village’ of Alicante bursts into life as the quaint, colourful streets of ‘El Barrio’ open for business. Packed with hip bars and less mainstream restaurants, the streets draw crowds as the sounds of live Jazz and Rock music permeate the air.
