Its oldest streets are surrounded by a 15th-century wall and entered via a gateway that resembles a tiny castle. Here, the view is taken from the Denda Kalea looking towards the impressive 16th-century Gothic church of Santa Maria de la Asuncion.
One can imagine Swyncop enjoying his stay, weaving along the undulant cobbles and pausing to feast at the various eateries. It’s an inspiring location with vantage points near the church that provide an elevated view of the enchanting Bay of Chingudi.
