Elche
Just a few kilometres from Alicante lies the ancient
city of Elche with many historical and cultural buildings.
Elche is famous throughout Spain as the major grower
of palm trees as well as being the centre of Spain's
shoemaking industry.
The
focal point of Elches 'old town' is the the 17th century
Basilica de Santa Maria with its blue tiled dome and
elaborate interior.
