My town

Hi!I'm MªÀngels and my town is La Vila Joiosa. Despite I'm living in Castellón I don't forget my dear town. La Vila belongs to Alicante province. It's very beautiful; not only because it was my born city. It has about 30.000 or more habitants, therefore it isn't big. It has many beaches of differnt types like rocks or sand. In summer, this beaches have refreshment stalls where you can eat, take drinks to refresh yourself, listen to music with the best the best summer landscape.
It's wonderful!! Stalls are my favourite place in summer. It's possible that you are hearing about it because its fabulous local parties of Moors and Christians. They take place since 24 to 31 of July every year. They are considered international interest parties. This is possible because its Desembarco. The "Desembarco"(disembarkation) is the most famous act of the parties of Moors and Christians. It take place at daybrake and consists in the Moors go with their ships from the wharf to the shore, and in the shore are the Christians waiting for them. When the moors arrive, the day is starting and they begin the battle for Villajoyosa's conquest. Do you know who is the champion?
Moors are the winners in this battle, but not everything finishes here.
Since the Moors had won, they invaded the casttle of La Vila. At this point the only way to recover the castle was to return to fight. This act is named "The Reconquest". Obviously, this battle is won by the christians.
