1. Casco Historico de Toledo

Reviewed By duomo2 - Taunton, United Kingdom
Beautiful city, definitely worth a day trip from Madrid, the train was only half an hour. Everything is so well preserved and really clean, it was like an authentic theme park, if that makes sense, in that you are completely transported to a different world. Lots of narrow winding streets and beautiful buildings, absolutely stunning.
2. Casco Viejo

An old, pleasant neighborhood best known for its open-air food markets, where shoppers can buy some of the freshest and best-tasting fruit and vegetables in Europe.

What a treat it was to explore the old part of Bilbao. In particular, Las Siete Calles was a maze of fun.
3. Barrio Santa Cruz
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 8,818 reviews
The Barrio Santa Cruz used to be the Jewish quarter. The streets are narrow and form a labyrinth. It’s easy to get lost among the jasmine-scented streets… only to discover a convent or a palace or a hotel. Many of the palaces have wrought iron gates suitable for peeping into their beautiful patios. There are many small stores and some artisan shops, as well as good art galleries.

4. Marbella Old Town
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 5,392 reviews
This old neighborhood is full of romance, with narrow, winding cobblestone streets: great for evening strolls.
Reviewed By Hermes_NL - Amsterdam, The Netherlands
Marbella is not just a glitzy beach town but also an highly historic city dating back to the times of the Moors. The old town is choc full of character with the old fortifications, narrow streets, colorful churches, little chapels, lively squares, and of course many restaurants and shops. Very much worthwhile to go to essentially every day during your Marbella stay.
5. Albayzin

Named a World Heritage Site, this is the old Moorish quarter of Granada.
Reviewed By Omer-Lavv - Greater London, United Kingdom
ALBAYZIN is a district in the historical city of Granada that retains its name and look from it’s Moorish past, when it was ruled by Muslims.The place has many places to see, colorful shops and restaurants to eat. Albayzin has narrow streets and has a hilly landscape. A good walk up to the top of Albayzin to see Palacio Dal al Hora, or “Mirador San Nicolas” provides a great opportunity for scenic views and an escape from busy streets of Granada for a breath of fresh air. It’s a very interesting place to wander about and see historic buildings and medieval looking streets like “Calle Elvira”, and in particular its steep off streets (with many colourful Arabic shops and restaurants), Calle Calderería, Puerta Elvira (Granada's city gate), Palacio Dar el Hora (residence of the last Moorish king's mother) and the one I really liked was" Mirrador San Nicolas"(A view point on the top with scenic views of Alhambra,Granada, especially during sunset, see my profile cover picture), along with many other attractions in this interesting place. Albayzin has a strong middle eastern feel and look in its streets with women selling Hina (Arabic tattos) for ladies and men doing Arabic calligraphy. We've been there twice and still can't get enough of this beautiful city with centuries of history attached to it.

Took the trouble to have a day out to visit the old town for the first time on my third visit to Benidorm. I absolutely loved it wandering through the narrow streets and boulevards stopping at various venues for drink or two a complete more relaxed way to enjoy Benidorm and for me and I am sure for many a hidden gem that will have me returning for a longer stay in fact a weeklong stay here is very much on the cards later this year

We went to Albarracin when we drove from Valencia to Madrid. And this small little village lives up to all the hype that surrounds it. Totally medieval, hidden among the mountains you don't see it until you are actually there. Spend the night here to get the full charm.

If you like peace and tranquility this is the place for you.The little white houses with bright flowerpots ,quiet narrow streets is wonderful.The view from the top of the Publo are spectacular,looking down over the coast. There are a few little bars and restaurants so no need to go hungry or thirsty. Can't wait to go back.
