What kind of label should be given to the small town of Sitges? "Blue Glass Sea"

What kind of label should be given to the small town of Sitges? "Blue Glass Sea" should be a good answer! Sitges is a seaside town in Spain, located 37 kilometers south of Barcelona, Spain. With warm sunshine, golden beaches, cool sea breezes, and clear, unpolluted sea surfaces, it boasts some of the best beaches in Spain. The beautiful city center is made up of narrow streets filled with bars, restaurants, and shops. Unlike many other coastal towns in Spain, the architecture here has not been ruined by overdevelopment. This is also the filming location for the Korean drama "The Legend of the Blue Sea." While watching that drama, I kept thinking that this beach felt so amazing, making me fall in love with it. The deep blue sea and the azure sky continuously extend to the farthest point, merging into one until you can't tell which is water and which is sky. The scene described as "The mist locks the mountain top, the mountain locks the mist; the sky connects to the water's end, the water connects to the sky" is exactly like this. This is also a middle-class villa area, gathering many wealthy art lovers. Around these wealthy patrons, there are often quite a few talented artists, which is why this place is called the "City of Art." Sitges is one of the oldest gay venues in European history, dating back over 30 years. Recently, the town has undergone a significant transformation due to the summer gay parties moving from Ibiza. There are many gay bars and (relatively early) small dance clubs here to meet everyone's needs. In the summer (from June to the end of October), gay nightlife starts at 10 PM, with most bars open until 3 AM, and dance clubs until sunrise. Many regular gay events are held here every year, including Sitges Gay Pride (June) and two annual international gay bear meetings. In the first two weeks of August, when the beaches, bars, and hotels are full, gay activities reach their peak. 1. Train: From the BARCELONA-Pg de GRACIA station in the city center or the main train station ESTACION SANTS in Barcelona, take the suburban train R2sud (R2 train has three lines, R2sud is the southern line, the color is dark green) to Sitges station. There are trains from around 5:30 AM to 11:50 PM. The interval is about 15-20 minutes per train. The journey takes more than 30 minutes, and the round-trip ticket price is 3.2 euros. The Pg de Gracia station looks like a subway station from the outside, and there is a ticket office on the ground where you can buy tickets. 2. Bus: You can take the MON BUS long-distance bus to Sitges at the Rda.Universitat station next to Plaça de Catalunya (next to the Barcelona club store). The ticket price is 3.75 euros, and the journey takes 55 minutes. Additionally, there are stops at Urgell and Plaça Espanya (Spain Square). Sitges·Garraf
