Murcia Holidays

Begin your journey in Mykonos Town, also known as Chora, where narrow, winding streets are lined with charming boutiques, art galleries, and cafes. The town's labyrinthine design was historically intended to confuse pirates, but today it provides a charming setting for leisurely strolls and do-nothing days in the sunshine. Head to Matogianni Street, a bustling thoroughfare in the heart of Mykonos Town, offering high-end shops, traditional tavernas, and lively bars, or for a slice of serenity, visit Little Venice. Perched on the water's edge, this picturesque area boasts historic houses with colourful balconies and is the perfect spot to enjoy a sunset cocktail and soak in the breathtaking views.

Immerse yourself in the world of Spanish baroque art at the Salzillo Museum, a treasure trove of creativity. Art enthusiasts will be captivated by the array of sculptures and detailed religious artworks created by Francisco Salzillo, one of Spain’s most celebrated baroque artists. The museum showcases an impressive collection of Salzillo’s masterpieces, including the renowned Paso Procesional sculptures, which are central to Murcia’s Holy Week celebrations. Each piece reflects the artist’s extraordinary talent for bringing biblical scenes to life with remarkable detail and emotional depth.

Murcia is a paradise for foodies, offering traditional Spanish cuisine with a Mediterranean twist. Don't miss trying the iconic arroz caldero, a local rice dish rich in seafood flavours, or pastel de carne, a delicious meat pie. The city is also known for its fresh produce, with an abundance of fruits, vegetables, and olives. A local favourite in Murcia is a crisp glass of Jumilla wine, a full body red wine based on monastrell grapes. For dessert, indulge in paparajotes, lemon leaves coated in batter and sugar – a true Murcian treat!
