Murcia
does currently not have its own Murcia airport, despite the fact that visitors
are sometimes referred to the small airport of San Javier. This
Murcia airport lies outside 45 km of Murcia along the Mar Menor and is
used by some english and german airlines. With the hot Murcia weather, no direct
bus connection (the next bus station is 2 km away) and no direct train station
(10 km) away, the only options to get away from Murcia Airport are the taxi or
Murcia car hire. Alicante airport
is a viable alternative. |

The
city of Murcia is described as one of the most beautiful and historic in the country.
The city stands on the banks if the river and enjoys all year round sunshine.
It has the highest temperatures in the region. There is a great deal of Moorish
influence in the city, not least of all the impressive city walls. After the reconquest,
the 20 mosques in the city were turned into churches. The Cathedral is the most
highly prized building in the city. The first foundation stone was laid in 1388
by Bishop Pedrosa. It took four centuries to complete. There are so many different
styles and cultures within, including 23 different chapels. |
