Old Town of Arcos de la Frontera

Highlight • Settlement

It's one of Andalusia's most iconic villages, perched on a rock with spectacular views of the Guadalete River. Its narrow, steep streets, whitewashed houses, and viewpoints invite you to wander leisurely. Furthermore, its historic center, declared a Historic-Artistic Site, perfectly reflects the essence of the White Villages.
