Faro Airport

Like neighbouring Andalucia, the Algarve region of southern Portugal is popular for year-round holidays, thanks to its mild, sunny climate. Its centrally-situated capital, Faro, is a popular tourist destination, and its airport is the most important in the Algarve, serving the entire region. It is a modern airport with excellent facilities.

Gérgal

Gérgal is home to an interesting castle, constructed in the Lombard style, which dominates the slopes and terraces of the village and, despite being built in the sixteenth century, remains in good condition today. The village has about 1000 inhabitants.

La Galeria Gastro-mercado

The gourmet market in Fuengirola, Mercado La Galería, opened in February, 2016, but became a favourite place for locals and visitors to meet straightaway. Right in the heart of the town, between the Plaza de la Constitución and the sea, Arquitectos Martín have created an attractive space with a barrel-vaulted glass roof that lets the light flood in.

History

Cogollos de Guadix has ancient origins dating back to the Late Roman Empire and the Argaric period. Later settled by Arabs and later ruled by the Marques de Villena, it preserves a rich mix of cultures and history.

Weaving

There are many fine weavers in Andalucia, although hand-operated looms only survive in remote areas, for the production of crafts articles for export, such as the wool blankets of Grazalema in the province of Cadiz, and "jarapas" (rugs coarsely woven with scraps brightly coloured fabric) of Almeria.

Festivals in Montecorto

The Festivals in Montecorto are Cabalgata de Reyes Magos, Día de Andalucía, Semana Santa, Romería de Montecorto, San Juan, Feria y Fiestas Virgen del Carmen, Feria de Agosto y Mercado Andalusí.

Alcaracejos

Alcaracejos is the natural entrance to the Sierra de los Pedroches, with archaeological remains from the Neolithic era, as well as a number of Pre-Roman ceramics. It has about 1,400 inhabitants.

Chucena

Chucena is situated in the Huelva Comarca of El Condado and sits east of the province as the last village before getting to the province of Seville. It has 2020 inhabitants.

Vega of Granada

The area west of Granada was once a crucial frontier between the Moorish kingdom of Granada and the Christian territory. Today, it is now dotted some dramatically sited villages, on rocky crags or hills overlooking the fertile vega (plain). These villages still bear the stamp of their defensive past in their ruined fortifications in hilltop positions, with magnificent views over the olive groves and cereal fields of the undulating vega.

Person-centred-humanistic Counselling

Person-centred counselling is one of several types of humanistic psychology. It was pioneered by Carl Rogers and Abraham Maslow, who rejected traditional psychoanalytical approaches, which simplified humans into types of behaviour. Instead Rogers and Maslow saw humans as complete beings in a constant process of change, striving to fulfil their potential.

Golf - La Duquesa Golf Course

La Duquesa Golf Course is a typical Trent Jones layout demanding concentration and straight driving.

Winding around El Hacho beacon hill overlooking the Mediterranean across to Africa, La Duquesa in terms of facilities is probably the most complete club on the Coast, with tennis, squash, gym, sauna, jacuzzi, bowls, yacht harbour and, of course, golf.

Monturque

Monturque village has a collection of interesting things to see, all located at the top of the hill in a peaceful setting next to the viewpoint called the Mirador de los Paseillos or the "Balcón del Mundo" (Balcony of the World), where visitors can take panoramic views across the surrounding countryside. It has around 1900 inhabitants.

Villalba del Alcor

Villalba del Alcor is situated in the heart of Comarca El Condado, east of La Palma del Condado. It thrives mainly on agriculture, specifically grape for the local production of wines from the Comarca. It has about 3500 inhabitants.
