Less well known but very beautiful is the Mojacar, Almeria area, situated between Malaga and Alicante. In Mojacar the Greek, Phoenician, Roman and Carthaginian visitors have all left their mark.
However, the Moors have given it its name and formed the spirit of the village, which is reflected in the streets and houses. Mojacar boasts lively nightlife and many typical souvenir shops. This area is growing in popularity but still remains charming and interesting. |
