Meandering around Mijas
Meandering around Mijas, looking for gifts for the family?
Sauntering around the beautiful white streets of the village, stumbling upon small independent shops selling a mix of artisan products, traditional handicrafts and fun souvenirs.
I have been travelling over to the Costa del Sol for around the last 15 years. There is so much to do along this stretch of coast that each time I go I seem to discover somewhere new. My short trip last week was no exception. Although I was there for a friend’s wedding at the very swanky Don Carlos Beach Resort in Marbella I had a few days either side of the ceremony to chill out and top up my tan. Here are just a few of the new things I discovered on my latest trip…
First ever remains of the Bronze Age are discovered in Mijas!
Do you find history fascinating? Hire a Mijas Villa, hop on a plane and discover the history surrounding the area and in Mijas. Archaeological excavations have begun in the wall of Mijas Pueblo by the Department of Heritage Hall of Mijas. They have discovered artefacts dating back to the Bronze Age, the first listed on the Costa del Sol- it is believed to be an axe and sixteen pieces of ceramic. The findings are proving that human settlements were in Mijas way before historical data shows.
A Mijas Villa is an ideal base to experience the culture of Mijas. It is located within the heart of the Costa del Sol. Mijas is a small Andalusian town in the province of Malaga
Throughout the year there are many festivals that are celebrated, One being the Feast of Nuestra Señora de Gracia (Our Lady of Grace).
