Things to do Seven Secrets of Alicante Free Tour - Art, Culture & Gastronomy

Did you know that for centuries, water determined who ruled and who survived in Alicante? This tour follows that invisible thread to uncover a side of the city that most visitors never get to know. As we walk through the historic district, I’ll tell you the story of the Basilica of Santa María, built on the ruins of an ancient mosque—a trace of centuries of coexistence and conquest that remains there, even if it isn’t visible at first glance. We’ll then make our way up through the narrow streets of the Santa Cruz neighborhood, one of Alicante’s most photogenic and least-talked-about corners, where the urban layout still exudes medieval history. And we’ll end at a place steeped in memory: the Central Market, the site of one of the most devastating bombings of the Spanish Civil War in 1938. A wound that has left its mark on the city—and one that few tourists ever learn about. What you’ll discover: How water shaped power and survival in Alicante for centuries The hidden history of the Basilica of Santa María and the mosque that preceded it The hidden charm of the Santa Cruz neighborhood The silenced memory of the 1938 bombing of the Central Market
