Overview:

Discover the medieval charm of Bocairent, a hilltop village built almost entirely of stone, including a bullring that was carved from solid rock in the 19th century. It took the villagers years to complete the excavation, but the bullring is still used today. Because almost every building is constructed from rock or carved into rock, Bocairent has an engaging medieval ambiance. The historic quarter is particularly atmospheric, as it was laid out in an Arabic style that reflects a Moorish influence. The streets twist and turn, rise and fall and often end in charming squares and cul-de-sacs. While sometimes challenging to negotiate, Bocairent’s old quarter is visually breathtaking, especially from areas that offer panoramic views of the countryside. To enhance your appreciation of the local culture, you will visit an local artisan shop that makes regional liquors such as anise-flavored herbero from mountain flora. While tasting his concoctions.
