The road inland from the Atlantic coast takes you up into hills and mountains that can be harrowing at times. The payoff is being able to visit ancient towns clinging to the mountains and the very heart of Andalucian culture. There are too many pueblas blancas to visit so we are stopping only at a few. First up; Arcos de la Frontera. First a Moorish stronghold and the a Christianized town, the city sits atop a rock outcrop- a perfect defensible location. Narrow streets and white-washed walls are the hallmark of these towns. .
