The City of Alcoy, Spain

For most tourists the city of Alcoy (pop 60500) in the interior of the Costa Blanca is little known.
With the rivers Serpis, Uxola, Molinar, Bnisaido and Riquer, all passing through, it is full of impressive bridges and viaducts.
Being mostly an industrial town, Alcoi like it is called in valencian, is best known for its famous fiesta of the Moors and Christians.

I wandered around the city for a while absorbing the atmousphere and captured a few images but
intend to return for a longer session. There is so much more to see.
