Living in Murcia

Here you can enjoy the finest regional, national and international cuisine. Murcia cuisine is centred around its local produce such as peppers, tomatoes, fish, cheese and lamb. Rice plays a fundamental part in the Murcian diet as it is grown in the nearby Calasparra region and some consider it to be the finest in Spain. Murcia enjoys many fiestas but its Easter processions are among the most famous in Spain, when life-size, finely detailed sculptures by the 18th century artist, Murcia-born Francisco Salzillo are taken out of the museums and paraded around the city. The colourful Orchard procession takes place about a week later.Transport in Murcia
