Pictures of Mijas

One of the jewels of the Costa del Sol is the beautiful little village of Mijas, which nestles in the hillas above Fuengirola, and is a superb choice for either holiday or full time living. 

Mijas still has much of its charm with its little whitewashed houses perched on the hillside. The village has also managed to retain some of its quaint traditions, one of the most unusual being the donkey-taxis which line the central plaza.

In contrast Mijas Costa is a smart resort of sun worshippers attracted by 12km of excellent beaches.

Hidden away in a corner of the village, overlooking the wonderful valley leading to the coast, is the hermitage of the ‘Virgen de la Peña’. Built into a rocky outcrop by Mercedarian monks in 1520.
