Redovan Costa Blanca
There are many different towns and villages in the region of Costa Blanca that are worth visiting. The Costa Blanca area is such a diverse place, along the White Coast itself that there are many towns and villages and there are the obvious tourist attractions such as Benidorm, Alicante, and Torrevieja.
But once you go away from the tourist scene and drive inland you will come across some very special Spanish towns that will offer you a different experience. These small Spanish towns don’t try to compete with the package holiday market, they are instead going to try and offer you a more relaxing and tranquil experience that can only be found where there are few people. One of those places is the town of Redovan.
Redovan is one of the older municipalities of the Costa Blanca and it has gone through much of the same history as the rest of the region including invasion by many different countries, involvement in several wars between the feuding Spanish kings, and Redovan has even gone through an earthquake in the early part of the 19th century where several people were killed or injured, with a lot of the buildings taking structural damage or even being destroyed altogether. But, in the present times, all seems to be going well for this little town.
The architectural heritage in Redovan and indeed in many of the towns in the vicinity comes from either a military standpoint or a religious standpoint. And there are perfect examples of each of these particular architectural features. Also, you will find that the cuisine in this area is absolutely wonderful. Almost every bit of the food is prepared from the freshest ingredients, with methods of cooking that have been passed down through the generations so that there is no need for any of the chefs in this region to consult a cookbook. Originally from Roman and Greek shores, the salazones (salted and dried fish) is a real love of the people in this region. And, one of the best foods that you can buy around here is the Tapas.
