What to see in Bocairent

As soon as you arrive, you will be blown away by the beauty of the historic centre. Breathing the Medieval period, the steep cobbled streets, bubbling fountains, picturesque ruins, pretty chapels and the elegant Asunción de Nuestra Señora Parish Church are calling out to be explored. If you’re in the mood to visit some museums, you’re in luck. Take a look around Vicent Casanova Municipal Museum for a glimpse into the area’s archaeological heritage.  

Two of Bocairent’s most popular sites are just steps from the town centre. Sant Blai Ice House is a beautifully preserved set of underground caves that were once used to store ice and are now open to the public. 

The second is the site Bocairent is perhaps best known for. Covetes dels Moros is a collection of caves excavated into the nearby mountain rock face. The spaces are believed to have been used to store grain during the Moorish period. Though located at some height, the caves are accessible to visitors. 

Once you’ve taken your time to explore this must-visit, we’d also recommend checking out Nuestra Señora de los Dolores y Santos Reyes underground monastery and the imposing bullring. 

See if you can coincide your trip with one or all of Bocairent’s festivals. The Moors and Christians Festival is a real spectacle where the colourful dances fill the town square with music, traditional dress and a joyful atmosphere. You also won’t want to leave without sampling the extraordinary local products and dishes. Tuck into stuffed peppers and pericana (a pepper and cod spread) then wash it down with a local liqueur.
