Mairena Village

Highlight • Settlement

Mairena is considered the "Balcón de La Alpujarra", because from the
viewpoint of its hermitage you can enjoy privileged views over the
set of the valley of Ugíjar, the Cerrajón de Murtas and the Almeria
Sierra de Gador. It is also one of the whitest and best-kept villages in the surrounding area, in whose urban complex the silhouette of its church stands out.

Laroles Village and Church

Highlight • Settlement

Although its name derives from the Latin word for laurel, it is the chestnut trees that enjoy the greatest prominence, as in other towns in the area. Here it is said that the chestnut was used for a long time as a currency. The town is distributed in the form of a fan around its three squares.
