We went for a walk exploring the heart of the city of Alicante on Sunday. The walk was a leisurely one and started out walking down some of the side streets. Along the way we came across some interesting things. The first thing we encountered was a protest against cruelty to animals.
We watched the protest for a short period of time and then headed toward the old quarter. We walked down a side street and we could see something beside a garbage container.
As we got closer we could see that it was a leg of ham still attached to the gondola ham stand. The gondola ham stand was new and the price was still attached. This one was worth almost 30 euros.
After we walked by the gondola ham stand, we came to a neat little muslim bakery called “Pasteleria Oriental Alicante”. We decided to go in and check it out. We bought a few tasty treats for later in the day.
We walked through the old quarter of Alicante exploring different streets. We came to the barrio of Santa Cruz and explored some of the streets there. We walked through the narrow streets admiring the flowers and decorations, it was quite beautiful.
We walked through the streets and eventually worked our way to the oldest church in Alicante.
There was a great view of the city and the castle from the church.
After exploring the barrio of Santa Cruz, we decided to go to a terrace to enjoy a beverage. We went to the hotel called “Les Monges Palace” which has a great roof top terrace. We sat on the terrace enjoying a glass of red wine and the views.
After having a glass of wine, we headed to one of our favorite restaurants called “La Matanza Castellana” for something to eat. We enjoyed a nice meal and then headed home after a long walk though the city. It was a very enjoyable way to spend a Sunday.
“Adios y que tenga un gran dia”
