Calasparra
Bullas has been traditionally considered as the entrance to the North West of Murcia. Life in this village revolves around wine, making possible a "perfect match" between culture and vine, history and a green and mountainous nature
The municipality of Cehegín is located in the heart of the north-western district. Prehistoric, Iberian, Roman, Visigoth, Arab and Christian settlers left their legacy in these landscapes with ever-changing nature, a legacy everyone enjoys today.
Caravaca de La Cruz is considered to be one of the five holy cities in the world, and a key destination for pilgrims and travellers alike who are looking for an inspiring, different and above all enjoyable place to go.
Calasparra, surrounded by four different rivers and two marshes, has one of the most amazing natural landscapes in the north-west. You will be amazed by its cave paintings, archaeological sites, culture, outdoor sports and its rice, which could be probably the best you¿ve ever tasted.
In the far northwest of the Region of Murcia lies Moratalla, the site of the ancient legacy of the Order of Santiago knights. The silhouette of its castle stands out in a landscape of valleys and its identity has remained almost intact for centuries. Cave paintings and the remains of Iberian, Roman and Medieval settlements add to the beauty of the woods and hills of one of the noblest lands in the Region.
