Anniversary in Antequera The andalucian pueblo blanco of Antequera is a town of dolmens, churches, convents, monasteries and tapas bars on the edge of a wide fertile plain. Opening hours for the sights on Sundays are from 11 am to 2 pm. Setting out early from the cortijo we made the Neolithic dolmens and, just, the municipal museum whose treasure is the first century Roman bronze Efigio. Then, after a leisurely lunch in the plaza across from our hotel, in the quiet siesta hours we followed a route through the town taking in various palaces, churches, convents, the arab castillo and the steep winding streets with glimpses of views over the plain. Wrought iron balcons and windows shuttered against the afternoon heat everywhere.

Lost of restoration too.

The wide open veja beyond the town.

The wooden doors of the palaces enclose green courtyards.
