Daytrips from La Azohia
- 3: Theme Parks
Terra Mitica (Benidorm)
The Terra Mitica park is divided into five areas of
attractions and shows which, going back in time, display
the mysteries of the most ancient and legendary civilisations
of the mediteranean.
Egypt "The bazaar of dreams", Greece "The
place of the gods", Rome "The frontier"
and Iberia "The warm shore" surround a large
lake of water which symbolises the Mediterranean Sea,
from which the fith area, The "Great Voyage"
Islands emerges.
Egypt - The bazaar of dreams This area reflects, with
surprising realism, the splendorous world of the thousands-year-old
Egypt of the Pharaohs up to the sumptuous court of Queen
Cleopatra in the city of Alexandria. One can stroll
amid the bustle of Alexandria Harbour, roam the streets
of the bazaars, shop in a palace and, at the pyramid,
share the Pharaoh's secrets.
Greece - The place of the gods The area of mythical
Greece comprises three different scenarios: That of
the Olympic Games, born in the ancient city of Olympia,
with the shrine dedicated to the god Zeus. That of the
marketplace of Agora in Athens, and lastly, that of
Crete.You can relive the excitement of the Olympic Games
and go back to the time when everything was possible
with the help of the gods.
Iberia - The warm shore This area depicts the life of
a small Christian village in the Region of Valencia
in the XVII and XVIII centuries: its houses, orchards,
typical cottages and farmsteads. It extends from the
Levante Harbour to the Castle of Pope Luna, which rises
up as a symbolic defensive bastion. It also shows the
spirit of coexistence of this Region in the Arab and
Jewish settlements, and the tension with the Christians
in the mock battles between "Moors and Christians",
so deply rooted in the popular festivities and traditions.
The Islands - The great voyage This area is in the centre
of Terra Mitica, on the island in the middle of the
lake which symbolises the Mediteranean Sea.
