Hiking
The term Añora has its origin in the Arabic word naura, which means waterwheel. According to scholars, the term refers to the waterwheel of an orchard that was in the vicinity of the place currently occupied by the municipality. And it was around the aforementioned orchard where the first inhabitants of the town gathered. In relation to the historical period in which the first residents settled in the place, even though it is not easy to document the exact date, it is believed that it was at the end of the 14th century and the beginning of the 15th.

Hiking
Añora immediately attracts attention because almost all of its houses are built with granite blocks with the joints painted white. Some of them are very old but the tradition has been maintained. Because of these very particular facades, the houses of Añora are known as the "Casa de las Tiras".
