CultureA country of great culture, Spanish traditions are part of every-day lifeMusic, theatre, dancing and food play a great part in Spanish make-up. The Flamenco dancers combine both music and theatre often in passionate displays of male and female relationships. It is spontaneous and provides a unique and very moving form of entertainment. The Spanish style of Guitar playing has made it´s mark also as a distinctive finger-plucking style punctuate by tapping on the body of the guitar for rythm and percussion. Tapas is a kind of spanish snack that has become infamous both inside and outside of Spain. Coming from the word "tapa" meaning lid or top, the dish arose from bartenders placing a little saucer or "top" onto the customer´s drinks and placing a tasty morsel on the plate for them to have as an accompaniment to their beer or wine. Now this tradition has grown into a fully fledged cullinary spacialty with many bars specialising in tapas. Typical dishes are "gambas al ajillo" - prawns in garlic and olive oil, "jamon serano" - a cured pork meat from Serano," boquerones" - anchovy fillets (the sweet white meat not the spiney brown fishy meat we are used to in the UK which is actually the spine!), "empanadillas" - small light pastry cases filled with various fillings and "montaditos" (literally something mounted on a piece of bread)such as "lomo de cerdo" - pork loin. Although bull fighting is almost obselite now, there are still many old bull rings to be seen in the cities. These are fabulous examples of architecture and part of the culture of the country. Bull running is, however, still practiced. This is where the streets are closed off and a route is created for the bulls to run along. Younger men run before the bulls as a sign of their strength and courage. It is an event that attracts crowds from all over. The Spanish often wave white handkerchiefs and whistle and shout whilst snacking on "pipas" - sunflower seeds in their shells. Afterwars the floor is covered with the shells of the seeds after the locals have expertly extracted the nut and dropped the shell on the floor. Paella is perhaps on eof the most famous dishes from Spain. Pronounced pie-ey-ah, this dish is made in large round Paella pans and consists of a special rice ( or "arroz")with either meat, fish and seafood or vegetables. In Murcia the speciality is "Arroz con Canejo y Caracoles" - rice with rabbit and snails. Delicious! Of course you can always ask for it to your taste (ie without the snails!!) Paella is a very sociable formof cooking on Spain and many Spanish families get together soley for the purpose of cooking paella, drinking wine and enjoying each other´s company. The Spanish culture is reknowned for it´s wine and wine making Cultural Heritage Our culture stone by stone As a result of its intense historical tradition, the reiterative superposition of cultures, its strategic location as a Mediterranean enclave and its transitional character as a border territory mid-way between the Meseta and Andalusia, the Murcia Region retains innumerable vestiges of the past, making it an ideal meeting-point where History and tradition have been instilled with new life and placed at the visitor´s disposal. The abundant remains and archaeological sites include rock-paintings in cave-shelters dating back to the Iberian period, the splendour of Roman antiquity with its urbanistic refinement and penchant for the theatrical, Visigothic cities, Arab medinas, Christian castles, watch-towers, churches and temples, civil and military constructions... This ample historical, artistic, architectural and cultural heritage can be contemplated and admired in a diversity of natural settings, in the actual locations where the monuments themselves were erected, or within the thematic spaces provided by the Region´s complete network of museums. The Region of Murcia is thus likened to a rich printed fabric upon which History has been depicted for our contemplation.

Monuments Civil Architecture | Religious Architecture | Military Architecture | Historical-Artistic Ensemble The monuments in our region take us back to past times, and their stones talk to us of the different cultures of our predecessors: their techniques, their artistic skills, their love for detail and their desire for capturing the best of their time, their essence... They are jewels to be contemplated and enjoyed, and which take us back to a time that is still very present in our towns and villages, perpetuating the historic memory that is our heritage.

For this purpose, a regular circuit has been set up which, in collaboration with the Town Councils involved in the scheme, organises performances by professional companies and groups of contrasting styles. As well as this, through this network, members are encouraged to produce shows, organise tours and artistic exchanges, and, at a regional level, coordinate with the other existing members, as well as, at a national level, create links with the Spanish Network of Theatres, Auditoriums and Performing Tours. The theatres which exist in the Region of Murcia at present were built, in the great majority of cases, at the end of the 19th Century or beginnings of the 20th, and have been renovated and adapted to comply with the theatrical demands of modern times.

In fact it could be quite categorically stated that no other art form can compare to it. It is a totally original art form different from all other artistic circles, from the technical as well as the thematic and artistic point of view. An art form which leaves room for every type of conception, from the naturalistic to the schematic, and hence UNESCO, on the second of December 1998, at its session in Kyoto (Japan) declared these paintings World Heritage in the category of Cultural Landscape. The collections of prehistoric art painting in Murcia take in a chronology which dates from the later Palaeolithic to the Bronze Age. During these cultural periods several different types of art developed, which are as follows: Linear-geometric, Levantine and schematic. Of the almost one hundred examples of this art form found in the region, those of relatively easy access, which are to be found on a route which runs through the north of our territory and borders the neighbouring communities of Valencia and Castile-La Mancha, are the ones we have selected. The numerous paintings which cover a good part of our rock walls and caves were painted during a period of several thousands of years by people who belonged to very different cultures. It is for this reason that they have been formally grouped into different commonly accepted styles. In the Region of Murcia, we have examples of all of these styles and, in order of antiquity, they are as follows: Palaeolithic Art, the name assigned to the most ancient phase of prehistoric art, is a collection of styles from the later Palaeolithic Age (30,000 - 8,000 BC). This type of art originally seemed to be absent from our Region, but recently, in Cieza, several cavities have been discovered with magnificent illustrations of horses with a Solutrense chronology which dates from about 15,000 years ago. Linear-geometric Art developed right at the end of the Palaeolithic Age. They are figures found beneath those of the Levantine period and are characterised by rectilinear motifs. As far as some researchers are concerned this would have been present in the Cantos de la Visera in Yecla. Levantine Art is the name successfully proposed by the teacher A. Beltran for the most common stylistic type found within our Region. It shows images of a narrative and naturalistic yet dynamic character, an art form belonging to a people whose economy was principally based on hunting, which pertain to an age of between 6,000 and 10,000 years ago at the most. Both human and animal figures are painted in red and, very occasionally, in black. This is carried out by first drawing an outline with a fine brush and then later colouring it in. Schematic Art, like the Levantine, consists of a fine layer showing human and animal figures as well as symmetrical and geometrical shapes. They are drawn in red paint which is applied in thick strokes. Both the human and animal shapes are reduced to their most conceptual levels, bordering on the abstract. Historical Art comprises the different parietal art forms from the Roman era until the Middle Ages.
