Located in the mountain range called \u201c Sierra Mariola\u201d, Biar was once called Apiarium which comes from the Roman word for beehive because this area was rich in aromatic herbs which made for a very prosperous production in honey. Having Alicante as our departure place, take the rural road marked A-213 until you come to the cross road marked A-210.<\/p>\n
As you approach Biar you do not need to have eagle-eyes to contemplate its 12th century castle majestically overlooking this quaint village.<\/p>\n
