Yecla, one of the most exceptional destinations of the Region, is situated in the far North, or better said, in the far Northeast. This is a land of mountains, good wine, history, culture and legends. It is no wonder that Spanish writers such as Azorín or Pío Baroja were fascinated after getting to know it.
Jumilla is one of the crucial stops in the North East region. Called 'the beauty' by the Arabs, it is famous for its wines with Designation of Origin (D.O.), its gastronomy, its gardens and its Iberian, Roman and Medieval legacy.
In the Northeast is al-Bayada, which means "the white town" in Arabic. Abanilla is known as the Murcian Palestine because of its desert landscapes, palm trees oasis and Muslim origin.
The municipality of Fortuna stands out by its vast horizons and its contrast between arid landscapes and green palm trees. The history of this land, surrounded by nature protection areas, is strongly linked with a thermal spring that's been really appreciated since the Iberian and Roman periods.
