Basílica de Santa María

The Basílica de Santa María stands as the historical highlight of Elche, a palm-fringed city just a short distance from Alicante. This basilica is renowned for hosting the annual Mystery of Elche, a theatrical performance that reenacts the death of the Virgin Mary and her assumption to heaven.
