Macharaviaya is a municipality in Andalusia with an area of 7.24 km². Macharaviaya had a population of 461 at the last count. The village is built on the ruins of an old Moorish settlement on top of a mountain. The name is derived from Andalusi Arabic Machxar Abu Yahya, meaning Abu Yahya's Court. It was the home of the noble Gálvez family. The historic center of the village has a monument status. Some Spanish and foreign artists, ceramists, painters and writers live among the villagers.
