The fountain has seven spouts, with various water pressures. The four spouts on the left lead from the Moscoso orchard, from where it is channelled under the even-numbered houses of Calle Prado, and the three pipes on the right are supplied from the upper part of Calle Mina. Its central location makes this square a point of reference and orientation for locals. The successive remodelling of the square eliminated another fountain that once served as a watering hole for animals. Even so, it retains elements worth mentioning, such as the large mansions that surround the square and the traditional public laundry area. There is almost no season of the year in which the square does not become the scene of celebrations and events.

It's hard to believe that the wild beauty of the La Axarquía is just half an hour from the coast of Málaga's eastern Costa del Sol. These villages are as interesting as the better-known white villages to the west and inland from the more glitzy western Costa del Sol including the gateway of Marbella.
