La Alpujarra
The Moors inhabited these towns and villages up to the beginning of the 17th century and left their imprint on their traditions and culture.
Guadix
Guadix is one of the oldest settlements in Spain. The landscape is marked by cave dwellings carved out of the hills.
Montefrío
Lost in the rolling hills of olive groves in the north-western reaches of Granada Province, at 2,500 feet above sea level, the picturesque town of Montefrio, standing well away from the region's beaten paths, has conserved much of its traditional charm.
Sevilla
Sevilla lies on the banks of the Guadalquivir and is one of the largest historical centres in Europe, it has the Mohammedan minaret of La Giralda, the cathedral (one of the largest in Christendom), and the Alcázar Palace. Part of its treasure include Casa de Pilatos, the Town Hall, Archive of the Indies (where the historical records of the American continent are kept), the Fine Arts Museum (the second picture gallery in Spain) plus convents, parish churches and palaces.
Almería
The city of Almeria is located at the foot of a mountain range which is crowned by the magnificent Alcazaba, an Arab fortress built by the Calph of Cordoba, Abd-er Rahman III with three huge walled enclosures (in the second of which are remains of a mosque, converted into a chapel by the Catholic kings). In times of war, the Alcazaba could hold an army of more than 20,000 men.
