Strolling through the streets of this old town with centuries of history takes you back in time. Narrow corridors where vehicles do not pass and whitewashed houses protecting you from the heat of the strong southern Spanish sun. The elevated location of the town means that the wind blows through the streets and dries the clothes hanging out to dry in a short time.
