Its more than 3000 years of history allow us to discover the true jewels of this well-known building. In addition, you’ll be able to see incredible city views.
Follow the path to the Barrio de Santa Cruz, one of the most picturesque areas of the city and enjoy the Baroque style of the Ayuntamiento de Alicante or the modernism of the Mercado Central.
