Here’s another one of our posts that, via the miracle of YouTube, transports you elsewhere than where you are. In this case, it’s a beauty, especially if you have a thing for Donkeys. This adventure is a winding self-drive through Spain to the city of Mijas Pueblo. Why here? Mijas Pueblo is one of the most famous and picturesque of Andalusia’s “white villages.” Its characteristic old town is a labyrinth of narrow, cobbled streets winding up a hillside, lined with dazzling whitewashed houses adorned with brightly colored flowers spilling from balconies. This visual appeal is instantly recognizable and incredibly photogenic.
Whitewashed houses gleam along the steep, narrow streets of Mijas Pueblo, one of Andalusia’s mountainside white villages. Bars and restaurants surround Plaza Virgen de la Peña, where traditional Sevillana dances are held during the annual Mijas Fair. Frescoes from the 1600s adorn the Church of the Immaculate Conception, while the 18th-century Ermita del Calvario chapel offers sweeping views of the Costa del Sol.
