Passeig de la Drassana Spain Postcard

Peñíscola, known as the 'City in the Sea,' is built on a rocky peninsula connected to the mainland by only a narrow strip of sand. The town is crowned by a Templar castle that once served as a papal residence, towering over the blue Mediterranean waters. Passeig de la Drassana winds around the base of the massive stone walls, offering a dramatic view where the white-painted houses of the old town meet the rugged cliffs. The contrast between the heavy fortification and the delicate, flower-filled balconies of the residents creates an iconic coastal Spanish silhouette.
