The cozy town of Nerja, located on the eastern coast of Costa del Sol, is slightly different from the rest of the resorts of the southern region of Spain. First, reigning in the city atmosphere and the absence of high-altitude houses gives Nercha to some similarity with a typical Spanish village. Secondly, the local coast consists of a mountain slopes, descending directly into the water, and sandy beaches, passing into hiding under rocky cliffs of the bay. But all this does not in any way spoil tourists a rest, but on the contrary makes it more memorable and fascinating.
In Nerha, tourists can soar under warm sunlights on the Burriana Beach marked by the Blue flag or to engage in underwater swab in Cartarria Bay. In addition, in the town and its surroundings, travelers will have something to see.
Inspection of remarkable corners of the city and snow-white houses with a tiled roof can be made on foot or out of the open trail of the tourist locomotive. True, the pretty blue locomotive rolling tourists only in the center of Neri, but at the same time the audio guide tells passengers about the history of creating and restoring the city after the earthquake. Travelers Such pleasure will cost 3 euros.
During self-walking, tourists will be able to admire not only the ancient center of the city, but also walk through the narrow streets of the more modern upper part of the neuros. True, with unaccustomed such a walk may seem the guests of the city of tedious. These are local residents with ease of descent and rises along the steep streets, and tourists prefer transport or horses with a wagon.
Inspect the sights of the city, tourists can approximately in such a sequence:
Park Blue Summer (Verano Azul) - One of the most beautiful corners of Nerja. This place has its own unique history of the creation associated with the popular Spanish TV series of the same name. The fact is that the shooting took place directly in the Nercha and the mass showing the series made a kind of advertisement. And in gratitude for this wealthy locals built a park. One of the main exhibits of the park was the boat of La Dorada, used in the series. This is not limited to the fleet of the park with the TV series. Every place in the parking lot received its own name consonant with one of the series in "Blue Summer".
In this popular natural location, tourists among riveting green vegetation can be found arbors and comfortable benches overlooking the Monument of Europe (Fuente De Europa) - another fairly unusual creation, however, like the park itself. The monument consists of sixteen stones, fifteen of which were brought from different countries of the European Union.
There are playgrounds in the park, and even a football field. Tourists can walk through the park can be free on any day.
Balcony of Europe - Large observation deck on a rock, located in the heart of the city.
Of course, someone can describe a balcony in a different way. But it seemed to me just a big terrace with a stunning view of the sea and the shore. In the seventeenth century, at this very spot was the Watchtower, which in the 12th century was rebuilt and at the suggestion of the king Alfonso Xii renamed the balcony of Europe. The monument to this king is now banging near the railing of the observation deck. Near him and standing near the old guns are photographed all tourists.
Europe balcony smoothly flows into Plaza Cavana's area, connected by arch with Spain's area. Both of these areas are trying to visit. Although in reality there is nothing interesting on them. Even the main urban clock on Spain's Square look quite modestly, and I would even say, boring. It should also be noted that in the summer period on both squares is very hot, and find the shaded corner is very problematic.
Church of Salvador (Iglesia del Salvador) - The most significant temple of Neri. Find this architectural and religious attraction to tourists will not be difficult. It is only possible to move away from the balcony of Europe in the direction of the city hall building and the white structure with two large panels on the facade fall on the facade. This will be the Church of Salvador with the bell tower.
The temple itself is built in the style of Baroque and looks modest. Its main decoration is two ceramic mosaic panels with fragments of biblical stories. Get inside the church to admire the vintage frescoes and modern painting, tourists can free.
Orlini Bridge or Aqueduch Aguil - Landmarks located on the very outskirts itself. Inspect the aqueduched, it will be the most convenient time during a trip to Cuevas de Nerja caves by car. Although stopping opposite the aqueduct is prohibited, many tourists violate the rule and instead of simply slowing down and make a couple of pictures, completely stop.
Travel buses adhere to road rules. Given this fact, travelers should keep the camera at the ready and take pictures at the right moment.
A bridge out of 38 arches in the form of horseshoe in four floors. It looks very impressive. Despite the fact that the aqueduct was built over Maro gorge for two more centuries ago, it continues to function as an assistant for irrigation of nearby fields.
Magnificent Cueva de Nerja - Caves that glorified a small resort for the whole world. They are 3 kilometers outside the city, but in the very center of Nerja in a reminder of their existence there is a small monument.
The inspection of the cave will take about 40 minutes from tourists and stretches for 2 kilometers. Lower galleries are open to visitors from 10:00 to 14:00 and from 16:00 to 18:30. You can get into them on the stairs in the lobby. Just first have to buy a ticket for 9 euros for an adult, children can inspect the caves for free.
In all, without exception, the caves there are bizarre education, and a harsh classical music sounds. The most impressive is the hall of the cataclysm with a 32-meter column.
