Iznate entrance sign

Iznate lies about thirty kilometers from Málaga in a hilly landscape dotted with olive groves and vineyards. The village is one of the typical Andalusian Pueblos Blancos, known for their white houses, narrow streets, and tranquil atmosphere. The surrounding area is predominantly agricultural and particularly famous for its Moscatel grapes and raisins. It's well worth a visit.

The Casa Fuerte Bezmiliana is an 18th-century fortress located in Rincón de la Victoria, Málaga. It was built in 1766 by order of King Charles III to defend the coast from attacks by British and Dutch pirates. Its military design includes a square floor plan, masonry walls, two diagonal turrets, and a moat. After its restoration in 1992, the building was transformed into a cultural center hosting exhibitions and artistic activities.

quite steady with 6-8% up the mountain 😀

The municipality of Benamocarra belongs to the Axarquía region, which offers picturesque landscapes, whitewashed villages and agricultural traditions. The town dates back to the Moorish period of Al-Andalus, falling to the Catholic Monarchs in 1487. Therefore, the village has a rich history with Moorish and Andalusian influences and retains its traditional charm with narrow streets and historic architecture. Benamocarra is a worthwhile destination for a cycling tour, with sights such as the Iglesia de Santa Ana and the Plaza del Calvario. Nearby, detours to Vélez-Málaga with its historic old town and the Castillo are worthwhile.

In 1956, the trademark was created that made Osborne famous around the world - not least because of the ongoing presence of the almost 14-meter-high silhouettes on Spain's highways. The Osborne bull was originally planned as a large billboard on Spanish roads, where it was to serve as an advertisement for the Veterano brandy. In 1956, the Spanish agency Azor was commissioned to design an advertising board for the Veterano brandy. The designer Manolo Prieto, who worked there, was tasked with implementing the design and developed the Osborne bull, which is now known around the world. Over time, it developed from a trademark into a national symbol of Spain. The Osborne bulls that can be seen today no longer have any advertising lettering. There are currently around 90 bulls distributed unevenly across Spain, 21 of which are in Andalusia.
