Murcia is a sun-drenched autonomous community in southeastern Spain, wedged between Andalusia, Valencia, and the Mediterranean coast. Known as the 'Garden of Europe' for its extraordinary agricultural output, the region blends Baroque city architecture, Roman ruins, a vast saltwater lagoon, and some of Spain's most dramatic Holy Week processions.
