Mijas Pueblo
Mijas
A white hill village in Andalusia, with whitewashed lanes, blue flower pots and panoramic views over the Costa del Sol, plus donkey taxis.
Mijas sits on a hillside about 430 m above sea level, roughly 30 km from Málaga. Blue flowerpots decorate its whitewashed lanes, and the Ramparts Garden offers views over the Mediterranean and the Costa del Sol. Highlights include the Chapel of Our Lady of the Peña built into the rock face, the square bullring, and the Miniature Museum. Donkey taxis used to be a signature feature, but in recent years attention has turned to animal welfare. Take a bus from Fuengirola for about 25 minutes, or drive.
