Best things to do in Murcia
Real Casino de Murcia
Calle Traperia 18, 30001 Murcia
Despite its name, this is not a casino to play cards in. It is a beautifully restored public building housing various statues and artwork from the area. It used to be one of the Royal palaces before turning into its current form of an exhibition and cultural center, housing various talks, book launches and book clubs. Well worth a visit for the beautiful ballroom alone.
