Forgot to post my final visit to the Mediterranean sea🌊 for now. The earliest Ibero-Roman remains excavated in the port of Peniscola; they date to the 1st–2nd centuries BC. Arab writer Al-Idrisi described Baniskula in the 11th century AD, and briefly described a Moorish castle overlooking the sea James II of Aragon👑 gave the castle to the Knights Templars⚔️ in 1294. The Templars began work that year, demolished the Muslim fortifications🛡️, and completely rebuilt the castle; the work was completed in 1307. The castle was involved in various military conflicts🏹 of the Kingdom of Aragon, and later in the War of the Spanish Succession in the early 18th century, the Peninsula War and civil conflicts in the early 19th century. Nowadays, the name of this popular Spanish🇪🇦 beach town always makes you wonder about its naughty origins 🤔🤣👌 -- #peñiscola #peniscola #peñíscola #peníscola #peniscolacastle #Mediterranean #Summer2021 #Spain2021 #OceanLife #SummerHoliday #BeachTown #BeachHoliday #LifeIsABeach #BeachLife #Castellon #castellón #castelldepeñiscola #InstaHoliday #HolidaysInTheSun #WhenInSpain #AtTheBeach #OceanBlues #OceanWaves #SummerInSpain (at Castell de Peníscola) https://www.instagram.com/p/CPdD13ypJC_/?utm_medium=tumblr

Ancient castles need modern upgrades for next generations. #TourismRecovery #CityManagement. Back to explore #PeniscolaCastle. Last time #GameOfThrones was being filmed here. Another discovery is that castle is not in #CaminoDelCid @caminodelcid although the Cid movie was filmed here.
