What you can expect

Vejer, a town on top of a mountain, a privilege that allows it to control the Laguna de la Janda region and the Strait of Gibraltar. Cradle of Romans, Arabs and Jews. Cultures still present today in the Town between white, narrow streets, cobblestones and stones.

The Church, the old Arab Mosque, the Jewish quarter, the Paseo de las Cobijadas with its impressive views that allow us to see the Atlantic and Africa, we will climb its gigantic walls, we will enter the Castle of the Dukes of Medina Sidonia.

We will live in the Arab quarter, The Legend Al Zhora, famous Arab Vejer expelled in the 13th century, wife of Sidi Al Rachid, founder of the blue town of Chefchaouen.

We will surrender to the support of the people of Vejería in the aid of the shipwrecked of the Battle of Trafalgar; in view from the Mirador de Poniente.

Tribute to the 1st Andalusian Ombudsman, Juan Relinque, who fought to maintain Las Hazas (communal lands against feudal power)

And we will see the old windmills, similar to the one Don Quixote fought against; of flour with its machinery intact.

Other notable aspects
If you are interested, I can arrange a donkey ride (authorised by law) and entrance to the Juanino Windmill
