The Region of Murcia is a major producer of agricultural products; for example, it is common to find tomatoes, lettuce, and, specially, lemons and oranges grown in Murcia in European supermarkets. These days, the economy of the region is turning towards "residential tourism" in which many people from northern european countries have a second home in Murcia, this it is due, partly, to the mildness of its climate. The rains are scarce and irregular, as are cloudy days, as there are more than 2,800 hours of sun annually. The constant good weather is a reason for many to visit Murcia at any time of the year
