You can't really miss this when you come to Alicante, it's so dominating up on its hill. I love the moorish architecture and the views are just spectacular.

This mountain dominates Alicante and you can see the 'moor's face' in it when you look from el postiguet beach which is why the moor's face is a popular image in the town. Climbing to the top you'll get great views and a chance to explore the awesome castle.

The Castle of Santa Barbara is one of the biggest medieval fortresses of Spain that is located in the center of Alicante. This major landmark of the city stands on the top of Mount Benacantil, which offers the most fabulous views of the city. It is free to enter and is open everyday.
