Our travel recommendation: Cuenca

Usually we recommend something to see in the surroundings, but this time will would like to recommend you a marvelous city, Cuenca, at just at just 2 hours by train from Alicante.

Cuenca’s old town has the UNESCO World Heritage designation, and the city spreads out from atop a promontory overlooking the ruins of its Moorish castle, the ancient Kunka fortress.
The Cathedral, Casas Colgadas (Hanging Houses) and cobbled streets charm the most hardened traveler.
