A visit to the marimutra will be interesting and photographers of naturalists. Unique types of colors shot in macro mode will become invaluable photos.
You can get to the Botanical Garden on foot or by bus that leaves from the center of Blanes. On Mondays the park does not work. Travel by bus and input ticket paid (5 and 6 euros). We do not recommend going through the elderly or resting with young children: there will be in a hill about 25 minutes, not everyone is given to everyone. The advantage of walking the walk will be the opportunity to see the beautiful panoramic views of the city of Blanes, opening up as the slope is elevated. In order not to get lost and easy to navigate in the labyrinths of the botanical garden, do not forget to take the park card at the entrance.
San Juan Castle
The vintage castle of San Juan remains unchanged by Blanes. He began his story in the 13th century, when it was erected on the site of the ancient Roman fortress. For a long time, San Juan Castle was the personification of the reliability and protection of the city from the attacks of ill-wishers. For many centuries, the castle was collapsed several times and restored, but this did not prevent him from obtaining the status of the national monument and become a mandatory paragraph at the tourist route. San Juan is located on a mountain at an altitude of more than 170 meters, offering unforgettable views of the surroundings (especially beautifully the coast in the light of night lights in the evening day). Today, the territory has created a city historical museum.
Chapel of Saint Varvara
Sv.vvvar was the patronage of the city of Blanes. The chapel in her honor was located next to the San Juan castle, and rightfully considered one of the main attractions of the spa town. At first it was the watchtower of the castle, but over time it was rebuilt into a chapel, the bell of which was noticed by the local population of possible danger. The road from the center of Blanes to the castle and the chapel takes no more than 20 minutes and pleases the eye with picturesque marine species.
