Elche outskirts

- Palm gardens, Bimilenario Suspension Bridge, Vinalopó River


We took a day trip to Elche from Benidorm and the Canelobras Caves to visit the palm gardens. We entered Elche from the North, via the Bimilenario Suspension Bridge above Vinalopó River. The outskirts of Elche are filled with many dull modernist buildings, just like other Spanish cities. But what makes Elche special is that you will see large palm gardens anywhere, once you enter the city.
