I founded incredible but needs some improvements to be able to compete with places as Ronda (that’s my personal opinion).

What I loved was the scenery, the views....

Another hidden beauty in Andalucia - Arcos de la Frontera

The city is placed on the top of the cliff, with incredible views of all the countryside and the lake.

You can see here the influence of the cultures that had lived around, where Muslim and gothic mixes.

    Arcos is one of those hidden little gems in Spain that probably doesn't get the recognition it deserves! Great pages!!
