Igualeja, a Town Crossed by the Genal River
Straddling between Sierra Blanca, Sierra Bermeja, and Sierra de las Nieves Nature Park, Igualeja is one of the most traditional villages in the Genal valley. In fact, the river rises next to its buildings, which cannot be seen from any other location in the province. The village is hidden from view even for visitors, who can only see it at the last road bend. |
