Elche is Past and FutureSet in the heart of the Costa Blanca, surrounded by palm trees yet looking to the Mediterranean, Elx offers a variety of pleasant surprises for the visitor. Its mild Mediterranean climate enjoying fresh sea breezes, its valuable cultural and ecological heritage, its fiestas and popular traditions contrasting with the industrial infrastructure of the town, with its broad avenues and modern services, all form part of the principal attractions of the town.

| Trying to think why do we find this page on the
Internet I have come out with the wisdom of Pere
Ibarra iRuiz who found out 100 hundred years ago
what would I think today:
"Ser útil a sus semejantes, ha
sido es y será siempre, el más noble, digno y
levantado objeto de los hombres que, dedicados al
estudio, cifren todas sus aspiraciones en descubrir
la verdad y ponerla de manifiesto… Por eso,
hijos míos al dedicaros estas sencillas y breves
páginas donde he procurado referir nuestros
episodios más sobresalientes, describir nuestros
más suntuosos edificios y anotar nuestras más
honoríficas grandezas, mercedes y privilegios,
hánme movido dos impulsos. Es el primero, daros a
conocer prontamente, a vosotros, los hombres de
mañana, la historia de Elche, de nuestros padres, de
nuestro ayer. Y es el segundo, que me sirva de ligero
ensayo y abra el tenebroso camino, para con la ayuda
de Dios, escribir la que tengo en estudio y que
dedicaré a los hombres de hoy. Recibid, cariñosos,
este pequeño y perfumado ramillete de flores
escogidas del hermoso jardín ilicitano"
Historia de Elche
Pere Ibarra iRuiz,
May 1895
