You can catch this little tourist train on the Paseo de la Libertad, just beside the markets in Torrevieja. It's incredibly cheap - costs about 2 Euro for an adult and 1 Euro for children - and it takes you right through the coastal part of the city right past Playa Los Locos.

Sometimes the first thing you see when you enter a city becomes one of your abiding memories of that place. Bar La Marina in Torrevieja is a building I've never been inside, but it's the first place we saw when we came up from the underground car park nearby.

It's such an odd little building to find in a city like Torrevieja - a bungalow in a jungle of apartment blocks. Gleaming white walls with a rustic terracotta roof. It, along with the building across the road with the beautiful, ornate arches, is one of the first things I think of when I think of that city.

La Iglesia del Sagrado Corazón de Jesús (or Sacred Heart of Jesus church) is a strikingly modern building in the centre of Torrevieja. I nver got to investigate the interior, because we were on a fleeting trip through the plaza in which it's situated, but the building itself is gorgeous.
