We shall take a tour of the Comunidad Valenciana, one of the 17 Autonomous Communities into which Spain is divided; it is made up of three provinces: Valencia, Alicante and Castellón. We’ll visit the three principal cities (the provincial capitals) and we’ll explore a range of other towns and villages across the region, from Orihuela in the south, close to the border with Murcia, to Benicarló in the north, close to Catalonia.

We’ll look at some of the more interesting and attractive buildings, and at the art that greets the visitor in public places – murals and sculptures. The main focus will be the Marina Alta, the area around and inland from Dénia, Jávea and Moraira. Among many others, the featured artists include Toni Marí from Jávea, a prolific and innovative sculptor in iron, and Tardor Roselló, a brilliant young muralist from La Xara, Dénia.
