Pretty nice small town, but...

by jason_cz - last update: Nov 23, 2003

Castle

There's a beatiful medieval castle on the Peniscola's peninsula (I wonder where does the name of the city come from), full of narrow lanes with the small stores.

And now something completely different

Charming, isn't it? So now the worse side - there's one disadvantage that I can see - all these fine places are FULL of tourists! For me it's really annoing...
The town changes in the tourist centre - which is good for the town but not good for visitors.
I don't want to argue you out of this place, surely visit it and who knows, maybe you will love it.

Photos

... are not here. Sorry about it, I have only old paper ones, so I have to scan them first. I hope I'll make myself to do it soon.

 Hi! I m not really happy about what you says.... If you dont want to see tourists in peniscola just go after holidays and you will discover the real Peniscola... which is for me the most beautiful town in Spain!
