RE: Portraits of rock climbers in Parque La Muralla, Mijas Pueblo Southern Spain 🧗🏻‍♀️😎

in Photography Lovers2 years ago

Lately, I was checking prices of real estate in the part where I live (Alicante, Valencia area), but occasionally, ads with homes from Mijas would pop out on my FB... Prices were interesting (low), but I have no idea how it looks there at all...
So, thanks for sharing these photos... I know that they are from the outskirts of the town, but still...

Have an awesome week!!

The funny thing is. This is the edge… of the town.
To clear things up for you. You have a rather large area that is called Mijas Costa. It is wrapped around the city of Fuengirola. It is a valley. A long stretch of houses all around. But than…
You have Mijas Pueblo. This is high up the mountains. It doesn’t even touch the houses in the valley.
Most people don’t know that and in adverts they don’t tell.
The pueblo is high up the mountain with these stunning views from my photos. All white washes houses and little streets. And the town is rather small. The road up is interesting. If you look up from the beach you see a white line on the mountain. That’s pueblo. The photos I took. Are taken in the park. Of Mijas Pueblo. It is right on the edge of it. Before it you go off the cliff/ steep bit of the mountain. It is worth a visit so cool. All the cute little houses are behind the park. Have a look at Google maps to check it out. 😉
Hope I could describe it enough to give you an idea of the differences @ph1102
We are planning a visit soon again. I will show you some more than if you want.

Thank you, have an awesome week too.

Thanks for the clarification... I have checked out Google maps and you are right, everything is "Mijas..." (something)... lol... Btw. Mijas Pueblo reminds me a lot of Altea (a town near me)... I know that all Spanish towns are similar, but these two are really lookalike!

You are welcome @ph1102 😊 yep hahaha 🤣
They sure look similar in many ways. A real mountain white washed village. That’s cool 😎
Enjoy your day further!
