Puente de la Risa

Highlight • Bridge

The renowned businessman Tomás Maestre, a driving force behind the development of La Manga, had the idea of creating a development inspired by Venice on the Murcian coast. One of the few examples that still remain from that original project is the beautiful and peculiar Bridge of Laughter.

Although its steep slope can be somewhat uncomfortable, its unique design makes it stand out more for its beauty than its functionality.

Molino de Veneziola Windmill

Highlight • Monument

The Veneziola mill, which is next to the canals and was formerly used to pump the water to the zinc basins where it could evaporate to extract the salt. This mill is best preserved as we can still see the spire and part of the machine.

Salt Mills of Mar Menor

Highlight • Monument

At the end of the Manga we will find several salt mills such as the one in Veneziola or the No. 168 that were used to grind salt.

The place is very quiet and ideal for contemplating the splendid views of the sea. Nearby we can visit the Bridge of Laughter that will give us a beautiful picture.
