Hi everybody, and welcome to Antequera, a little city in the middle of Andalucia, in Spain. We live there about 40.000 people.
The name of the city comes from latin anticaria, that means antique, because even romans came after a lot of town were established here.
We have three paleolitic structures still intacts;
menga,
viera, and
romeral.
For those who like roman rests, we have a
roman village,
roman therms, and a lot of objects inside the museum.
For those who like arabic and castles, we have the
alcazaba, a castle with his walls still intacts. Where the castle is located there is also a laberint made with gardens, very similar to the one that existed in the time the castle was a fortress aginst the invasors. The access to the castle is by this
arc, made with rests from the romans and iberos, some sort of museum to make everybody see that before the muslims came to the city the place was historic.
For those who like the arquitecture, we have a lot of historic buildings, like the
museum (here is
inside), the
townhall, and some other buildings (
1,
2,
3, for example, we have a lot...)
For those who like churchs, we have 33 (more than people who goes, as i think). Here is a
sample, and
other, and
other.
As if we don't have enough, we also have a
natural reserve, made by the erosion of the stone while it was underwater.
And also we have
la peña, that, as you can see, it looks like the side of a man's face.
