PLACES OF INTEREST

The surrounding area also has some charming spots to explore. Most remarkable is the small, quaint town of Guadalest where a portion of the town was built inside the mountain. The town is divided in two districts - the castle quarter and the quarter Arrabal, and are a re listed as an historic-artistic complex.

A tiny village nestled on top of a cliff 590 miles high and with only 200 inhabitants, Guadalest is one of the prettiest destinations on the Costa Blanca . The only way to reach Guadalest is by way of a small path leading up to the cliff, where you will discover the uniqueness of this small town.

On the mountain´s summit, Guadalest overlooks a deep valley with a beautiful landscape. The castle of Guadalest is very picturesque and is often featured in postcards. From the castle, you can enjoy a superb view of the charming village, the valley and the reservoir. There s an emerald-green lake that looks almost unreal in the landscape of barren rock in the Sierra de Aixorta . An interesting feature of the place is its quaint, Medieval houses positioned on top of the rocks. The variety of shops offering crafts and souvenirs will make the tourist s visit complete - a choice of miscellaneous, hand-made local objects of art: embroidery, ceramics and artistic glassware among others.
