"Thank you for the friendly and efficient service we received recently. We were a little reluctant to go ahead with a site inspection trip as friends of ours had done a trip a few months ago and had to endure hours on end of hard-sell presentations. We found your ‘no-pressure’ approach refreshing and it allowed us time to think about what we really wanted. As it happened, Las Torrentas had everything we were looking for in a development, and we can’t wait until 2008 to move in and live our Spanish dream! "

Magnificent, cosmopolitan city of Murcia

Murcia is the name both of the region, and its walled capital (pop. 1.2m), named "Medinat Mursiya" by its Moorish founders in 825 AD

Sheltered by foothills of the Cresta de Gallo, Carrascoy and Pila ranges, the city flanks the Segura River. It is a lively metropolis that dates back from the ninth century and is a gateway to an abundance of traditions and cultures.

In the old quarter, you will find the Cathedral de Santa Maria which is a vision of architectural excellence with a mix of styles from Gothic to extravagant Baroque.  The nearby San Juan de Dios church features the work of Salzillo, Spain's most famous 18th-century sculptor and resident of Murcia.

From here, follow the Calle de la Trapería amid old merchants' houses, perhaps visiting the elegant 19th century casino en route.  This first opened as a gentleman’s club in 1847 featuring an impressive decorative façade coupled with an Arab-style interior and magnificent ballroom.

From Plaza de Santo Domingo, the former market square, thread the Old Town’s narrow lanes to feast on lechado (roast suckling pig) or make an evening "tapear" or tapas crawl, sampling local snacks and wine at every stop.

The popular university adds a youthful, lively feel to the centre, which has plenty of bars, cafes and restaurants to sample, while there are numerous high street stores, designer shops and markets to tempt you.

To while away quiet afternoons, there are countless art and history museums which offer a tranquil retreat from the hustle and bustle of the city's streets.
