"This hill town is undoubtedly the most attractive, as well as picturesque, of any on this stretch. It has all the features: white walls, browny red roofs, narrow cobbled streets, Moorish Castle, panoramic views out over fertile land & bull breeding pastures, and an ability to celebrate feast days, notable even for Andalucía" - CROWOOD GUIDE, ANDALUCIA"...whitest of the white villages of Andalucía, strangely moulded around its hilltop site like a Greek island town. The village is dominated by its Moorish castle & Gothic church built over the site of a mosque. The towns spanking clean, narrow whitewashed streets are evocative of its Arab origins." - CADOGAN GUIDE, SOUTHERN SPAIN "occupied by moors up to 1250, it has a strong Moorish characterand a maze of narrow white streets. You enter the upper part of the village through the original Moorish gates...near this hidden by the surrounding houses is a Moorish castle, with a horseshoe gate and recently uncovered Moorish plasterwork" - MICHAEL JACOBS, A GUIDE TO ANDALUCIA |
