Elche is the only area in the province of Alicante to have three attractions on the UNESCO World Heritage List: El Palmeral, El Misteri d'Elx and the Museo Escolar de Pusol. It has a long tradition as a leading shoe manufacturer and is known for its many palm trees. Many of the main attractions are located in the historic center of the city, within easy walking distance of each other. If you use your time wisely, you can see them all in one day.
