Benidorm - skyscrapers, sea and Mediterranean panoramas
Benidorm is one of the most vibrant resorts on the Costa Blanca coast, which is deservedly called the city of skyscrapers by the sea. Here, beach holidays are combined with modern architecture, and the urban landscape resembles a miniature metropolis located right by the Mediterranean Sea.
Architecture of Height: From Intempo to Horizon
Benidorm is one of the few cities in Europe with a high density of high-rise buildings. There are dozens of buildings over 100 meters high, making it the leader in the number of skyscrapers per capita among European resorts.
The tallest residential building in the city and in all of Spain (outside Madrid) is the Intempo Tower , a 47-story residential skyscraper 187 meters high that has become a symbol of modern architecture. It is distinguished by its unusual shape: two towers connected on the upper floors by a "diamond" bridge.
Panoramas from Gran Hotel Bali
Another iconic building is the Gran Hotel Bali . It is the tallest hotel in Europe: 186 meters high, 52 floors. On the upper floors of the hotel there is an observation deck, which offers impressive views of the coast, the island of Benidorm, the Sierra Helada mountains and the city panorama.
It is especially breathtaking to watch the sunset from here: the sea turns golden and the city lights start to come on one by one.
Levante Promenade - City Life by the Sea
Levante Beach with its modern promenade is one of the liveliest places in the city. It is bustling with life: cafes and restaurants, street performers, bike paths, evening lights and white sand. In the morning, the promenade attracts joggers and walkers, and in the evening it becomes a place for romantic meetings by the sea.
Mediterranean Balcony
Between the Levante and Poniente beaches is the Balcón del Mediterráneo , a picturesque viewpoint with white and blue columns, an ancient staircase and stunning views of the bay. It is one of the most recognizable and photographed places in Benidorm.
