This beautiful white town is in the Axarquia area, in Malaga. It is famous for its white streets full of flowers and its cane honey. You can't leave without trying it!

The town nestles on the southern slopes of the Sierra de Enmedio, which forms part of the Sierra de Almijara mountains, the border line between the provinces of Malaga and Granada. From many places in the village you have a view down to the Mediterranean Sea.

Frigiliana is divided into two parts, an old and a new part, the old part is higher than the new part. The old part of Morisco-Mudéjar is the most beautiful, you have to climb for it, but then you have a beautiful view! When you walk through the old part, it seems that time has stood still here. You will notice this especially when you walk through the old city center of this village.

It is simply fun to roam the lovingly tended alleys, which are richly decorated with plants.

The white mountain village of Frigiliana on the southern foothills of the Sierra Almijara has been voted the most beautiful village in Andalusia several times.
Since the Neolithic Age and around 3,000 BC, the surrounding region has also been inhabited mainly in caves by the inhabitants of that time known. A mighty menhir north-east of the city center of Frigiliana provides information about this.

Frigiliana is a typical Andalusian village located north of Nerja. In the late 1990s, it was repeatedly voted the most beautiful village in Spain. Every summer, a flower festival is held there.
