Alcazaba de Antequera

Alcazaba de Antequera

3.9
Alcazaba de Antequera is an ancient military fortress that brings together Roman, Visigothic, and Islamic Moorish civilizations, and is a must-see gem for exploring the medieval history of Spain and the charm of Andalusia. Standing at the top, you can not only take in the panoramic view of the well-arranged white houses and ancient churches of Antequera, but also gaze out at the unique mountain peak known as "Lovers' Rock" and the fertile plains surrounding it. It is surrounded by sturdy stone defensive walls. The White Tower is an outstanding representative of the Nasrid architectural style, and its intricate interior vaulted structures showcase the superb architectural artistry of Islamic craftsmen of that time. Stepping inside, you can wander through the remnants of former military camps, cisterns, and courtyards. It is worth mentioning that an early bullring was once built on a historic open space here. This scene, where historical monuments are intertwined with traces of later life, is unique among the castles of Andalusia. For every traveler eager to explore the profound historical heritage and magnificent natural scenery of Spain, this thousand-year-old castle exudes an irresistible, timeless charm.Antequera · 579m from downtown

If you are into arts this museum is for you. Many are original Picasso paintings. Not a big museum but it will take time to go around especially when reading about every piece. Although there was a set time to enter and we were late by 10 minutes there is actually a queue so you are really not missing anything! The museum is very close to a cathedral and it is literally the centre of the city. Not to be missed

Beautiful place, rich with history and an abundance of instagrammable shots for the social media moguls. I would advise booking tickets in advance as they sell out and make sure you include the Nasrid palace to it and immerse yourself in the history of these wonderful moorish buildings.

It’s very historic attraction, and we really enjoyed seeing the luxury tiles artwork. The gardens are beautiful. Have got a lot of home decor ideas, the souvenir shops is great too.
