    This castle is one of my favourite places to visit, it never gets boring. Amazing views of the sea & city, fascinating history, places to eat & drink, nice breeze on a hot day. Never been on this tour so good to join it here.

      The thing is that I was out exploring that day already. Got back to the hostel and planned to go to eat. These two young people said you want to go to the castle. So I was already tired, but I'm glad that I went. Awesome experience, the view from here is priceless. 👍😎🚶‍♂️

    Very interesting I didn’t know the history of the Spanish Civil War. All countries seem to have a controversial past. We learn from our past and move forward and nice to see that we preserve the past. I’m from the USA and I believe we learn from our past history and learn and not forget but don’t destroy the past because that doesn’t accomplish anything. Nice video Kerry. The tour guide was amazing and very knowledgeable and passionate. The views were beautiful.

    • @TravelAddictGuy
      @TravelAddictGuy  3 года назад +1

      Well, many countries have tried to whitewash their pasts. Spain also tried and now many things are coming to light that were once hidden. We should remember our pats but also focus on our futures. The tour was amazing. Thanks for joining us virtually. 👍😸

    Very interesting Kerry! How does Alicante compare to Malaga as a city? Your feedback is always valuable thank you

    • @TravelAddictGuy
      @TravelAddictGuy  3 года назад

      There are some similarities and some differences as well. Malaga would have a better climate, but Alicante has nicer beaches and a casino. So it's really what you are looking for.

    Very good video (as always)! I think the language is not Catalan but Valenciano. It is not a dialect of Castilian Spanish but it is a distinct language in the Valencian Community that includes Alicante.

    • @TravelAddictGuy
      @TravelAddictGuy  3 года назад

      I think you're right Brad, I was not aware that Alicante used Valenciano language until after I shot the video. It does look very similar to the Catalan they use in Barcelona. Happy you enjoyed it, thanks for that info too. 🙏😎

      Paul Preston he's a charlatan, or rather, he's a fraud. There are historians worthy of the name, English-speaking who deal with the matter rigorously, not from ideological prejudices and twisting the facts as Preston does.
