I will be in Murcia for 5 days, any recommendations on things to see and places to go?

Answer 1

Hi! I'm from Murcia!!. Is a nice region in South-East Spain.

You can find beautiful beaches, and a small inner sea or bay, (Mar Menor), like a salt lake, separated to the Mediterranean by a long sandbar (la Manga).

The Mar Menor is beautiful, with small villages, with marine "flavour" hehe and a lot of bars and discos. Cabo de Palos, near there, has a beautiful beach with clear sand and blue water, and a beautiful lighthouse. All full of sailing boats, fishermen, and some islands inside the "lake" or "little sea".

The city of Cartagena is one of the oldest in Spain, is very beautiful, with old roman ruins and museums, a beautiful harbor surrounded by mountains, modernist and militar buildings, and nice weather. Really a fabulous city.

Murcia city is also beautiful, it's the seventh largest city of Spain, a university town, with a really beautiful Cathedral.

A lot of towns of inner Region of Murcia, known as "la Huerta" (Orchard) are really nice.

Lorca, a baroque city

Caravaca de la Cruz, the fifth holiest city of Christianism...

Good region, with nice beaches, beautiful towns, hot and s**y people, lively nightlife all over the year, good local cuisine and really good weather.

I hope you will enjoy it!!! Have nice days there!!
