Discover Murcia - Cieza
|
Cieza, in every street, path, garden or mountain displays its
beauty, by opening up the traveller's appreciation of the senses.
Its Palaeolithic and Neolithic remains are unique in the whole
Mediterranean fringe and its examples of cave paintings have been
declared World Heritage by UNESCO.
The Iberians and Moslems also left their mark, the latter in
the archaeological collection of Medina Siyasa. Evidence of these
cultures are preserved in the Museum of Siyasa. Other outstanding
monuments are the Church of the Assumption from the eighteenth
century; the Church of St. Joaquin, built in the seventeenth century;
the Convent Church of the Clarissas, dating back to the eighteenth;
the Hermitage of the St. Cristo del Consuelo (Holy Christ of
Solace), with its Neogothic-Mudejar style, and last, but not least,
the Hermitage of the Buen Suceso. Its artistic heritage is completed
by the Balcon del Muro, a historical centre which consists of the
ancient fifteenth century fort and the nineteenth century wall.
Cieza offers the chance to not only appreciate its culture
but also to enjoy the risks of Nature. Near this town we can found
one of the most remarkable natural beauty spots, the Almadenes
Canyon, formed by the River Segura as it narrows creating a gorge
with walls hundreds of metres high, which is ideal for practising
adventure sports.
