Museo de Belenes (Nativity Scene Museum)

Reviewed By dancook747 - Leeds, United Kingdom

Arguably one of Alicante’s best kept secrets, it is worth taking some time to visit the Nativity museum. Tucked away in the Old Town, not far from the Basilica Santa Maria and MACA. Visited one evening, this small museum contains a breathtaking array of hundreds of carefully crafted figurines and models depicting the Nativity and various Biblical scenes. Well worth the visit to see the intricate detail of each model; some of which are crafted in a picture frame, others are larger in size. Free entry which is another major advantage.
