Lagos de Alenda is an exclusive development of new two bedroom apartments in a beautiful lakeside setting on a first class golf resort near Alicante.
The site arguably occupies the best position on the entire golf course, on a sunny, gently sloping site with spectacular views over a beautiful lake and fairways.
Many of the homes have direct golf views, whilst others benefit from southerly aspects over wide landscaped grounds which include shaped lawns, two lake style swimming pools, water features, palm trees and viewing platforms designed to take advantage of the best views.

León
Castilla y León where thousands of fraternity members take part in the procession in true acts of faith, bearing authentic works of art so expressive that they seem to become flesh and blood as the drums beat their rhythm.
It is truly difficult to describe the sensation that one feels on observing the silent floats, as it is to define the expressive and tragic quality of the images. They are the best legacy of such artists of calibre as Gregorio Fernández, Juan de Juni, Pedro Berruguete and Gil de Siloé, who with their images of Christ, the Virgin Mary and Ecce Homo together with the passion of Christ wake an artistic appreciation in all those who contemplate them.
Such is the history, custom and sentiment in these religious manifestations, that many of the Holy Week festivals in Castilla y León have been declared festivals of touristic interest. Internationally, such as those in Valladolid and Zamora, and also nationally and regionally.
During the week the region becomes transformed into a contemplative and devout place, only interrupted by the sound of drums and trumpets.
Holy Week means peace and soberness, presided over by the artistic marvels of the images in the incomparable surroundings of Roman and Gothic churches. As varied as the cultural diversity that attends it, the manifestation itself is demonstrative of the devotion of all the people who celebrate the event in their different ways, although always driven by the same sentiments: passion, fervour and silence.
The people of León (Valderas) certainly know how to enjoy themselves and any visitor
to the area will be made most welcome on the many fiesta days during the year. These
hard-
Semana Santa (Holy Week) in Castilla y León is one of the cultural and popular manifestations that attract the highest number of tourists.
