Cehegín
Cehegín's old town, declared a historic-artistic ensemble by Spain's Ministry of Culture in 1982, makes for a walkable afternoon in the Murcia region, with a centre well supplied with cafés and restaurants. The municipality sits where the Argos and Quipar rivers cross, and its fertile lands have drawn successive cultures — prehistoric rock art, Iberian, Roman, Visigoth, Arab, and Christian — leaving a layered heritage across the wider northwest comarca.
