San Javier: the hercUlean way (english guided tour)

SAN JAVIER "The Vía Herculea"Guided tour starts at the San Javier Museum, where we can learn about the town's history from the early days as well as knowing the life of illustrious people born in the municipality. The different objects exhibited there, such as an airplane donated by the San Javier Air Base, will take us on a journey through the past. The Nativity Scene (Belén), one of the main tourist attractions in San Javier as well as a tradition with deep roots in the whole Region, is featured at the museum. After leaving the museum we will have a walk to the parish church of Saint Francis Xavier, one of the first churches built in the Mar Menor area. The temple houses several works of art by renowned artists, like the sculptor Sánchez Lozano or the painter Muñoz Barberán. Strolling on we arrive at the Almansa Park, located on the former Tomás Maestre estate. Nowadays this park is a cultural landmark in the municipality, where important festivals such as the International Jazz Festival and the Interantional Festival of Theatre, Music and Dance are held.  And last but not least we will access the heart of the Town Hall, the Plenary Hall, from where the members of the local government administer San Javier.

Yoga, meditation & music

Sierra Espuña is the ideal setting to do yoga. Let your breathing take on the rhythm of the forest and the pure air fill your lungs. Become aware of the here and now and connect with all your senses thanks to the characteristic smell of flowers and pine, the clean air caressing your face, the sound of the branches moving in the wind and the rhythm of the music, not to mention the show of brilliant colours which appears before your eyes. Enjoy a wonderful 2-hour meditation workshop with live music. Practicing Yoga & Mindfulness has never been so rewarding, nor has it ever taken you this far. Become aware of your body, experience yourself as an integral part of the setting, and travel through sound. Location: Sierra Espuña National Park.
