NATURAL SURROUNDINGS: PALM GROVE AND SEMINARY VIEWPOINT

Discover stunning date palm terraces and breathtaking panoramic views, showcasing a unique agricultural ecosystem and the rich history of the region.
Two natural treasures of special beauty are the Palmeral and the views from the seminary viewpoint. The Palmeral is a set of date palms that retains its original layout, aligned in terraces, paths and irrigation channels. A unique agricultural ecosystem and an ideal environment for walking. The views from the seminary are undoubtedly "The best balcony in Europe" as Isabel II rightly referred to in her visit to the city. From this privileged viewpoint you can see a unique panorama that encompasses the Palmeral, the fertile Vega Baja, the Sierra of Orihuela and the historic center of the city dotted with towers, domes and noble palaces. Both proudly show the essence of the city; Orihuela orchard, history and beauty that more than justify the queen's praise.
