Nerja Caves |
The historic monument which is the most spectacular
are the Nerja caves which are located just three kilometres from
the centre of town and comprise a natural archaeological cave containing
the world's widest column.
 Wall paintings found inside the caves date from
the Palaeolithic and post-Palaeolithic periods while skeletal remains
and artefacts show that they were inhabited from about 25,000 BC
up until the Bronze Age.
These fantastic caves have been sympathetically
transformed into a natural theatre where several concerts and ballets
are staged during the summer. During July and August this year there
is the 38th International Cave Festival with performances by manor
international artists planned.
