, Nerja welcomes its visitors with the crystal clear water
of its beaches and the beautiful mountains of the Sierra
de Almijara at only 55 Km of Malaga, capital of La Costa
del Sol.
In the town centre, built from 1487, you Hill find the
famous "Balcony of Europe", a mirador over the sea built
from the ruins of an old mediaeval castle. The city centre

houses and geraniums in the balconies. It also offers the

must highlight the Cuevas de Nerja festival.
Those caves, which can be visited all year round, are a
natural prodigy and the third most visited monument in Spain. |
