The Santa Clara la Real Convent Museum is one of the most beautiful attractions in the city of Murcia. It was originally built for Alcazar Seguir as an Islamic palace in the 13th century. Over the years, it was converted into a convent for Franciscan nuns and now houses an important part of the area’s history and art. You’ll be able to see stunning examples of 13th century Islamic art and archaeology, from the mosaics within the palace to the peaceful ponds and gardens. As you walk the gardens, you’ll be in the presence of some of the original flora and fauna such as the palm trees, citrus fruit trees, and pomegranate trees.
