Church On The Hill

In the distance, looking from my hotel balcony, the outline of a church can just be seen

It is the Virgen del Consuelo, or Virgin of the Consolation, and goes back to the early 1600s, although most of what can be seen today dates to the late 1800s and early 1900s.
There is quite a climb to get to the church, which is on a hill in Altea old town, but the predominantly blue-tiled upper dome is a well-known local landmark
