Benidorm

I learned that Benidorm has the highest density of high-rise buildings (per population) in the world, with 345 buildings over twelve floors. Due to the immense density of high-rise buildings, Benidorm is associated with “little Manhattan”. A number of residential towers, which mostly serve the tourism industry, were built from the 1950s onwards.

Benidorm has around 70,000 inhabitants in winter and up to 500,000 in summer.
