見どころ
The stone tombs at the UNESCO-listed Antequera Dolmens Site put Antequera on the tourist map. But there are plenty of other reasons to visit this charming Andalucían city. On this walking tour, you‘ll learn how Muslims and Christians battled for control of this strategic stronghold at the crossroads of Andalucía. You’ll also discover why it had romantic appeal for visitors like writer Washington Irving, who was in search of the legendary Spain of ‘ballad and chronicle‘. The tour starts in Plaza Coso Viejo. From there, you‘ll wind your way up to the Arco de los Gigantes and the Alcazaba de Antequera citadel. As you explore, you‘ll find out how Ferdinand of Antequera changed the city‘s destiny, and discover picturesque legacies of the city‘s Moorish past. The final part of the tour will take you through the district the Christians built in the 15 to 1700s. By the end of this tour in Plaza de San Sebastian, you‘ll understand why Antequera really is at the heart of Andalucía.

About Antequera
Antequera is an inland Andalusian town with a Moorish fortress, a skyline of churches and some of the largest prehistoric burial chambers in Europe.
Antequera lies in the middle of Andalusia, in Málaga province, on a plain between the coast and the mountains. A Moorish fortress, the Alcazaba, looks down on the whitewashed old town, where more than thirty churches and convents rise in Renaissance and Baroque style. Its dolmens, Menga, Viera and El Romeral, are huge Neolithic burial chambers and are listed by UNESCO.
