Get stunned from the very beginning by visiting the gorgeous Plaza Virgen de la Peña and the hermit carved in a cave that gives its name to the site. On your way to the Plaza you will get to meet the famous taxi donkeys and the reason why they became so popular decades ago. Along with the magnificent views to the Mediterranean Sea, it’s the perfect way to start.

Following a stunning beginning, it's time for some of the most typical corners in the village such as Constitution Square, “the she-bridge” and Muros Street. By getting deeper into the old town, the history of Mijas will be brought to life by your tour guide whilst surrounded by the charming white architecture. The remains left of the walls and fortress will reveal the brave defence of the town when the Catholic Kings tried to conquer the village. Today, beautiful verdant gardens decorate what once was a formidable islamic outpost.

At last, the most important church of Mijas and the Bullring Arena create together a lovely setting. It will be the perfect place to have a rest and to complete your, by then, amazing photo album. After all this pleasant experience, it will be time to come back to Plaza de la Virgen de la Peña. On your way back, you will have the chance to visit some gorgeous little stores and lovely corners that aren't easy to describe: it's better if you witness its charm.
