The most beautiful towns in Almería

Velez-Blanco1
Andalusia is, without a doubt, one of the communities that has the most to offer tourists: spectacular beaches, dreamy natural landscapes, charming cities, a folklore that falls in love, a quality tourist offer and, of course, beautiful towns. In Almería , for example, we can find 200 kilometers of Mediterranean coastline with virgin beaches and cliffs, desert landscapes, fertile orchards, an important historical-artistic heritage and exquisite gastronomy.

Today at Vuela Viajes we want you to get to know this Andalusian province more thoroughly. To do this, we are going to take a tour of some of its most beautiful towns . Of course, we must apologize in advance for all those places that have been left in the pipeline. And it has cost us a lot to choose only eight! Would you like to join us?

Mojacar

Mojacar
First of all, we want to talk about Mojácar, considered by many to be the most charming town in Almería. It is surprising for its popular architecture, characterized by its white houses. Of course, we must mention its landscape and its beaches . A special mention deserves its urban nucleus, with its peculiar structure of narrow streets and stepped terraces, as well as the church of Santa María, the castle of Mojácar and the remains of the old wall.

Lucainena de las Torres

Lucainena-de-las-Torres
A town that could not be missing from the list is Lucainena de las Torres, with its white and immaculate stamp. There are many things that we like about this Almeria town, such as how well preserved its streets and facades are or the flowers that adorn the houses.

Nijar

Nijar
Nor could we forget Níjar, one of the largest municipalities in Spain. It stands out for the diversity and variety of its areas of interest. Located at the foot of the mountains, the town preserves its structure of Arab origin. You will love the whiteness of its houses, its crafts, its Mudejar church and, of course, the Cabo de Gata-Níjar Natural Park.

Velez-Blanco

Velez-Blanco
To the north of the province we find Vélez-Blanco, a town surrounded by mountains that is home to numerous points of interest, such as the 16th century Castle of Vélez Blanco, or the Sierra de María Natural Park, where you will enjoy spectacular views . If you have the opportunity to visit this place, you cannot miss the Cueva de los Letreros and its historic center.

Laujar de Andarax

Laujar-de-Andarax
Láujar de Andarax is located in the Alpujarra of Almería, at the foot of the Sierra Nevada. What we like the most about this place is its magnificent landscape , although it is also worth discovering its urban area and, especially, the Church of the Incarnation, known as the Cathedral of the Alpujarra. Of course, we must highlight its many sources.

Taverns

Taverns
How could it be otherwise, Tabernas is also present on our list. We are referring to the municipality located in the famous desert area that bears its name. It is one of the driest towns in Europe and its desert is known worldwide for having been the scene of many films of the spaghetti westerns genre.

Pannier

Pannier
Between the Sierra de Filabres and the Almanzora river valley we find Serón, a mining town that has become a great destination for rural tourism. From its historical-artistic heritage we want to highlight the parish church Nuestra Señora de la Anunciación, a building in which Mudejar and Christian architecture converge. Also, you should know that the town is known for the quality of its ham.

Berja

Berja
Finally, we want to talk about Berja, which houses numerous testimonies of Roman domination, such as the ruins of Villa-Vieja or the remains of an amphitheater and an aqueduct. There are also vestiges of the early Christian era.
