Sagunto

18th of October we spent in Sagunto.

Sagunto is an ancient city in Eastern Spain, in the modern fertile district of Camp de Morvedre in the province of Valencia. It is located in a hilly site, c. 30 km north of Valencia, close to the Costa del Azahar on the Mediterranean Sea.

Sagunto is one of the most popular day trips from Valencia, and with good reason. It’s extremely easy to reach: just an inexpensive 30 minute trip on the Renfe Cercanias train system that binds the Valencian Community. And most importantly, the city is fascinating, especially for fans of history.

The remains of the Citadel (Castell), may be seen on top of the hill. It preserves much of its picturesque walled ramparts, of Roman and Moorish origin.
