Istorie
The hill was settled by Phoenicians and Romans, and in the Moorish period it was a fortified town. The Catholic Monarchs took it in 1487. For centuries, it was a farming and mining village known for raisins and esparto grass.
In the 1960s, the Costa del Sol tourism boom began, and the village was developed as a tourist attraction while retaining its whitewashed look.
