The charming village, nestled in the mountains, capital of the burro-taxi. The municipality of Mijas in the Costa del Sol is one of the most beautiful villages in Andalucía. The beautiful picture of endless white houses climbing up the slopes of the Sierra de Mijas, in contrast to the deep green of the pines, offers one of the most recognizable and picturesque images.
The village consists of three urban centers which are: Mijas Pueblo, located at the foot of the homonymous Sierra at 430 meters above sea level, Las Lagunas, which is the modern part of the town along Fuengirola, and La Cala, located on the seafront with more than 12km of coastline, also known as Mijas Costa.
