Description

Bocairentis one of the most beautiful villages with an authentic flavor of Valencian Community. Initially, it was built during the Islamic times by the Berber or Amazigh people followed by several civilizations over time; who left a remarkable heritage with several monuments, such as, the Moorish caves, the medieval quarter and the excavated bullring. We will visit a mountain village perched on the rock, surrounded by the landscape of the Sierra de Mariola natural park. Its medieval quarter has labyrinthine streets and houses half-carved into the stone. There we can visit monuments that are rare in others places, such as the snowfield located in the town, the church of the Asunción, which has an extraordinary goldsmith's museum, the Plaza de Toros, which dates from 1843 and whose site is excavated in the rock and the most famous monument of the town, which is the set of caves excavated by the Berbers called 'covetes dels Moros' and which can be visited inside. We will also get to know the local products with a tasting of herbero and pericana liqueur and taste the typical tapas, traditionally made by the families of the village.
