Property for sale La Cala de Mijas
Mijas is a municipality of Malaga on the Costa del Sol and next to Fuengirola. It is a coastal town where tourism is the main economic engine. If you are here it is because you probably already know this wonderful place in the south of Spain.
Although if you don’t know it, most of the area that Mijas occupies is mountainous and has three main population centres, one of them located on the coast (La Cala de Mijas) one near Fuengirola (Las Lagunas) and the other in the mountainous area at about 428 metres above sea level and with a typical Andalusian village character (Mijas Pueblo). It is considered one of the most beautiful white villages in Spain.
What’s on Mijas?
Mijas Pueblo offers a large number of tourist attractions to visit and throughout the year numerous festivals are held, many of them during the summer in the open air. We also recommend a visit to:
Max’s Wagon, a museum that displays a collection of miniatures including shrunken heads and even the last supper painted on a grain of rice.
Historical Ethnological Museum with old tools known as La Casa Museo.
Centre of the watchtowers, located in La Cala de Mijas.
Most of the monuments in Mijas have a religious origin due to the entry of the Catholic conquerors:
- Chapel of Santa Ana: Dates from the 18th century.
- Virgen de la Peña Chapel: A chapel dug into the rock between 1656 and 1682.
- Church of San Sebastián: from the end of the 17th century with religious paintings on its walls.
- Iglesia de la Inmaculada: a 17th century church located in the upper part of the village, built on the site of an old mosque of which its bell tower has been preserved.
- Calvario Chapel: Built at the beginning of the 18th century at the foot of the Sierra de Mijas.
- Chapel of San Antón from the 18th century.
- Jardines de la Muralla: Gardens built in the old fortress surrounding the village of Mijas.
- Watchtowers: These towers were used to watch the coasts and the entrance of enemies such as pirates.
