Known as one of the most beautiful and well-placed towns in Costa Blanca, this commune is made up of two parts, the old and new neighbourhoods. Heading to the old neighbourhood will perch you upon the verdant hilly landscape, showcasing outstanding panoramic views, while the new neighbourhood revels in its own architectural beauty with authentic village buildings painting the scene here.
