Arcos de la Frontera

[April 19, Arcos de la Frontera]

IMGP3473 Arcos de la Frontera [map] is another camera-ready white hill town. Like Ronda, ownership has changed several times, from Roman through Moorish to Christian. What remains is a warren of tiny cobblestone streets (on which the local government insanely permits automobiles) walled by white-washed buildings. No famous events of history here, just terminally-quaint Andalusian scenes.
