The White Villages or "Pueblos Blancos" are located in an area to the west of Ronda. These are about two dozen working hilltop villages where the way of life has hardly changed for centuries. If you would like to tour this area, try to pick up Los Pueblos Blancos de la Costa del Sol guide from the Malaga Tourist Office. It is available in both Spanish and English.
Mijas Pueblo is situated in the lowlands of the Sierra de Mijas mountain range and surrounded by pine forest. Mijas has managed to retain much of its "white village" charm, with narrow winding streets, dazzling whitewashed walls and breathtaking views. There are dozens of small shops with gifts made by local artisans and a large choice of tapas bars and restaurants.
Situated in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada mountain range, Granada was once the capital of a Moorish kingdom. A visit to Andalucia cannot possibly be complete without seeing the famous Alhambra Palace, a Moorish royal palace straight out of One Thousand and One Nights.
