Murcia is built nearly in
the centre of a low lying fertile plain, known as the huerta or market
garden of Murcia, which includes the valleys of the Segura and its right-hand
tributary the Guadalentín or river Sangonera, and is surrounded
by mountains. Despite the proximity of the sea, the climate is subject
to great variations. The summer heat is severe, while frosts are occasionally
experienced in the capital during the winter. Precipitation in Murcia is
scarce. Murcia region's main attraction is it's lack of modern development,
so has retained much of it's Spanish look and feel. |
