Alcudia, Mallorca, Spain

Alcúdia  is the main tourist centre in the North of Majorca, Spain. ItJust a few kilometres inland from the coast, Alcúdia is a place of quiet charm and character, ringed by mighty medieval walls that enclose a maze of narrow lanes, historic mansions, cafe-rimmed plazas and warm-stone houses. On the fringes of town are the remains of what was once the island’s prime Roman settlement.

In Alcúdia the old town is well preserved with houses dating back to the 13th century. The images below are from Alcudia old town and the surrounding medieval wall.
