As you jaunt along the radiant Costa del Sol from Málaga and climb into the forested hills, you will soon come upon one of the gleaming whitewashed villages for which the region of Andalusia is renowned. Mijas is a lovely example of a typical Andalusian town with a charming medieval village and remains of a Moorish castle, while it also boasts all the virtues of a modern Mediterranean getaway. Stroll past buildings adorned with pretty iron balconies and brilliant flowers spilling over the walls. Your guided walk will wind through mazes of narrow cobblestone lanes that ascend up to beautiful terraces. Stop to visit the town’s wine museum and enjoy a tasting of local wines, sausage, figs and other delights. Then enjoy some free time to explore the area, browse Andalusian crafts in the market, and perhaps take a ride on one of the town’s famous donkey taxis.
Explore the charms of Mijas, one of the whitewashed villages perched in the hills of Andalusia that have been enchanting visitors for centuries.
