Castle of Santa Barbara
Santa Barbara Castle was established in the 16th century, and the history of this area goes back even further. Items from the Iberian and Roman periods of the Bronze Age have been found on the mountain. Now, the castle has become a landmark of Alicante. There is an elevator on the side near the sea, but there is a charge for taking the elevator in the mountains, and it is free when you get down. There are many paths behind the castle to climb to the castle, and the top can overlook the whole city and the seaside. After coming down you can stroll around the beach, interestingly, you can see the face of a Moor when you stand at the entrance of the beach and look at the castle.Alicante · 25.5km from Novelda

Beautiful place, rich with history and an abundance of instagrammable shots for the social media moguls. I would advise booking tickets in advance as they sell out and make sure you include the Nasrid palace to it and immerse yourself in the history of these wonderful moorish buildings.

The most beautiful architecture in Alhambra, the most brilliant gem of Islamic civilization. A true World Heritage Site, strolling through the palace gardens is like wandering through the river of history.
