ARCHIVED - February 14 to April 16 New Acquisitions exhibit at the Arqua museum in Cartagena
The National Museum of Marine Archaeology in Cartagena has an exhibit this spring dedicated to recent acquisitions
This Tuesday, February 14, the National Museum of Marine Archaeology, ARQUA in Cartegna is launching a project of ‘New Acquisitions’ in which various newly acquired cultural assets will be displayed in a thematic display case.At ARQUA, the main source of growing the museum’s collection is through archaeological excavation, prospecting and chance finds. However, pieces are also acquired through other means such as purchase, confiscation or donation.
The New Acquisitions exhibit will display some of the recently acquired “museographic and bibliographic” pieces in the museum’s foyer.
The pieces on display will include an emblazoned 18th-century Chinese porcelain fountain purchased at a public auction of works of art, a good example of the intense trade that was established in the East India Companies, by means of which products from distant lands reached different parts of Europe through the rich cargo of galleons and frigates.

Continuity, security and the constant drive to improve attract visitors back to La Quinta year after year
The 5-star La Quinta in the heart of La Manga Club, the most prestigious sports resort development in the Costa Cálida, has forged a reputation over more than three decades as one of the finest multi-ownership members clubs in Europe, and is currently able to offer a limited number of new membership deals on both permanent and fixed 4-year term conditions.
Located in lush tropical gardens above the par-47 pitch and putt course of La Manga Club, La Quinta is within easy walking distance of the tennis centre and various shopping malls. The properties are luxury air-conditioned linked villas built in the traditional Andalusian style with views out across La Manga Club towards the Mar Menor, and those occupying them can enjoy the community’s saltwater swimming pool with swim-up pool bar, where drinks and snacks are served throughout the day.
La Quinta is also home to La Solana bar and restaurant, which is open to non-members for the superb breakfast and lunch menus!
In short, to remain at the top in a resort which has on various occasions been named the best golf destination in Europe, La Quinta have worked hard to combine a number of factors in what has proved to be a winning formula, the most appreciated according to members’ opinions being the following:
* Quinta Members return for their holidays

* Safety and security are given top priority.
* The weather is usually predictable and invariably better than at home!
* The standards both at La Quinta and throughout La Manga Club remain high.
