Alicante/Alacant's Absolute Essentials
Alicante’s landscape is defined by the medieval Castle of Santa Bárbara atop Mount Benacantil and the Roman archaeological site of Lucentum. The city’s history is preserved in the Gothic Santa María Church, built over a former mosque, and the 18th-century Baroque Town Hall. Modern life centers on the palm-lined Explanada de España and the basilica-style Central Market, a hub for local produce since the early 20th century. For leisure, the city provides the centrally located El Postiguet Beach and the extensive, Blue Flag-certified Playa de San Juan.
