It has more than 300,000 inhabitants.
DAY 1.
If you’ve just arrived in Alicante, the best thing to do is to leave your luggage at the hotel/apartment and go down to the centre for a walk to get acquainted with the city. You can go to the old town and visit the Barrio de Santa Cruz, it is one of the oldest and most traditional neighborhoods of Alicante and will transport you to a charming Andalusian village. There are well maintained small houses, each with a different decor. You’ll love strolling through the streets, but put on comfortable shoes because the ground is uneven, and there are a lot of steps; the only way to access the neighborhood is by walking. Once in the area, take the opportunity to visit the Chapel of Santa Cruz and the Brotherhood of the Holy Cross.
