A Destination For Your Costa Blanca Holiday Villas There are some people that haven't decided which destination they are going to book for their Costa Blanca holidays villas vacation. The Costa Blanca abounds in charming villages along the coastline; most of these quaint little villages offer something special that is just waiting for you to discover and take that memory back home with you to cherish for always. Some people recommend that you start your journey in Guardamar del Segura where the Segura River gently ebbs its way through the village which gives this area a picturesque view. The older parts of the village were destroyed by an earthquake but you can still meander among the ruins or what is left of the old castle. The villagers attempted to rebuild the castle closer to the sea but the sand dunes continued to encroach on it, forcing them to plant trees around the castle to protect it to some extent. Today it is a spectacular park which offers you a place where you can only dream of what once was.
As you continue your journey along the Costa Blanca the next stop you will come across is the town of Orihuela. This a town that is rich in not only history but also culture; it was first inhabited during the Bronze Age and subsequently by the Moors and Romans. When you examine the architecture on display you will notice that each ruling culture has left behind its mark; it appears that the Romans left the biggest impression but it all blends into together to make Spain what it is today. The next place of interest to stop at has got to be the vibrant city of Torrevieja as it has a lively beach life, a night life to satisfy people of all ages and a cuisine that is beyond belief not to leave out the history that abounds in this area. Torrevieja was once a sleepy little fishing village but today it is cosmopolitan city with a lot on offer for individuals and families alike. If you are looking for a modern town built expressly for the tourist trade with all their needs in mind then stop at Ciudad Quesada. This new town is a great place to spend a few days in the sun while surrounded by all the modern amenities where you can relax in complete bless. If you are in the market for a ready-made party then the fiesta of the Moors & Christians, which is celebrated every year, is a site to see especially when the villagers dress up in period costumes to take part in mock battles in the streets. One of the best places to see all this is Formentera del Segura as they celebrate this fiesta with great gusto. When making the decision as to where you are going to stay, before you book your Costa Blanca holiday villas do a little research on what you are interested in and more to the point what would the family enjoy doing. This is now the time to make all those dreams come true - and it might just change your future. Seasoned travel writer and now Spanish resident. weitere Infos
