It should be noted that, according <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thetimes.co.uk\/article\/the-20-prettiest-villages-in-spain-wwh9nd6zd\"> <em>The Times<\/em><\/a>  newspaper, Alc\u00fadia is the second most beautiful town in Spain.

But if you just want to spend the day in Ciutadella, simply buy a ticket for you and your family, partner, friends or travel alone, which is also a very good option. In the  <a href=\"https:\/\/proximoferry.brikkelt.nl\/es\/\">Pr\u00f3xim Ferry<\/a> application you can by tickets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And from the Roman Alc\u00fadia we come to Talayotic Menorca.

We find this noble and elegant character in the palaces of the Pla\u00e7a del Born that merge with the cobbled streets and the numerous religious spaces, highlighting the Gothic-Style Cathedral of Santa Maria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Did you know that the cathedral is at the highest point of the city?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/proximoferry.brikkelt.nl\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/catedralmenorca-1024x1024.png\" alt=\"la Catedral en Menorca\" class=\"wp-image-5560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/proximoferry.brikkelt.nl\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/catedralmenorca-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/proximoferry.brikkelt.nl\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/catedralmenorca-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/proximoferry.brikkelt.nl\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/catedralmenorca-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/proximoferry.brikkelt.nl\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/catedralmenorca-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/proximoferry.brikkelt.nl\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/catedralmenorca-470x470.png 470w, https:\/\/proximoferry.brikkelt.nl\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/catedralmenorca.png 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n    <div class=\"ad ad-type-timetable ad-has-image\">\n      <div class=\"ad-wrapper\">\n        <a href=\"\/en\/ads\/url\/25\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"background: url(\/en\/ads\/img\/25\/timetable?p=69e066189474a)\">\n                      <span class=\"title\">Trasmapi Club<\/span>\n            <span class=\"description\"><\/span>\n            <span class=\"ad-footer\"><\/span>\n                  <\/a>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    \n\n\n\n<p>It is good that the <strong>tour por Ciutadella<\/strong> begins precisely in El Born, one of the leading places in june, where many people gather to enjoy the Sant Joan celebrations. You can see the Town Hall building and from here start the route heading to Mol\u00ed des Comte or the port.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the port you will discover multiple bars and restaurants with terraces, where you can try the famous stews or rice dishes, as well as other products from the sea. Another place where you will also find an atmosphere to have a drink is in the Plaza de la Esplanada.<\/p>\n\n\n    <div class=\"ad ad-type-timetable ad-has-image\">\n      <div class=\"ad-wrapper\">\n        <a href=\"\/en\/ads\/url\/116\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"background: url(\/en\/ads\/img\/116\/timetable?p=69e066189474a)\">\n                      <span class=\"title\">Consell Insular - Zona Blava<\/span>\n            <span class=\"description\"><\/span>\n            <span class=\"ad-footer\"><\/span>\n                  <\/a>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    \n\n\n\n<p>Continuing in the port, you will see a staircase to climb and go towards the historic center. On this promenade there are different shops and the best views of the sea, perfect for photographing at night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We highlight the Teatre d&#8217;Es Born building, the Palau Salort, which is next to the Palau de Torre-Saura, and the Sant Agust\u00ed Cloister.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We emphasize two aspects of <strong>Ciutadella<\/strong>. The first one is the importance of handicrafts in the village, so you can keep Menorca in your mind by buying one original item from Menorca . Ensure that they carry the \u2018\u2018Avarca de Menorca\u2019\u2019 label, which guarantees the quality and origin of the product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/proximoferry.brikkelt.nl\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/zapatos-menorca-1024x1024.png\" alt=\"zapatos artesanos Menorca\" class=\"wp-image-5564\" srcset=\"https:\/\/proximoferry.brikkelt.nl\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/zapatos-menorca-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/proximoferry.brikkelt.nl\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/zapatos-menorca-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/proximoferry.brikkelt.nl\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/zapatos-menorca-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/proximoferry.brikkelt.nl\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/zapatos-menorca-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/proximoferry.brikkelt.nl\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/zapatos-menorca-470x470.png 470w, https:\/\/proximoferry.brikkelt.nl\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/zapatos-menorca.png 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Menorquines artesanes<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n    <div class=\"ad ad-type-timetable ad-has-image\">\n      <div class=\"ad-wrapper\">\n        <a href=\"\/en\/ads\/url\/114\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"background: url(\/en\/ads\/img\/114\/timetable?p=69e066189474a)\">\n                      <span class=\"title\">Isla Bonita - Tu mejor escenario<\/span>\n            <span class=\"description\"><\/span>\n            <span class=\"ad-footer\"><\/span>\n                  <\/a>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    \n\n\n\n<p>The other topic is gastronomy. For those of us who like to eat, we are lucky. Since this year 2022, Menorca has been declared a European Region of Gastronomy by the International Institute of Gastronomy Culture, Arts and Tourism. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Touring Ciutadella and stopp to enjoy a meal in an establishment that serves fresh products and kilometer zero is mandatory. You will find a wide variety of restaurants like the ones we propose in this post: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cafebalear.com\/\">Caf\u00e8 Balear<\/a>.
