Less than 50 minutes by car from Malaga is one of the most famous white villages in southern Spain. A dream place that transports you directly to the summer of Mykonos or Santorini, but without leaving the peninsula. It is so beautiful that even a Coca Cola advertisement has been recorded on it. Yes, we are talking about Frigiliana.
Although on Instagram it seems that there are millions of people spending the summer in Frigiliana, the truth is that this small town in Malaga has only 3,000 inhabitants and has achieved a ideal balance between its customs and its openness to tourism.
It is considered the purest architectural complex of Arab origin in Andalusia, one of the most beautiful towns in Spain and is known as the village of the three cultures, because in the 15th century Christians, Jews and Muslims lived there. Something that is still evident today in its fountain of the Three Cultures, the town square or the Adarve vessel.
We are before a town full of white houses, colored doors and alleys cobblestones, which comes alive in spring with pots full of flowers in every corner. Our recommendation? Lose yourself in its narrow streets and discover its viewpoints.
