Plaza Gruta de las Maravillas

What can we say!! Nature outdoes us every time! An amazing experience made all the better by the superb and sympathetic access. Might be a bit claustrophobic for some and there are a couple of steep sections, but overall the walkways, lighting and narrative was great, making this an amazing experience for a very reasonable entrance fee.

A few steps away from the Plaza Municipal, you can walk uphill to this church on the Hill, this gives you also some bright views over the area, the entrance to the church is free, and you have also a small shop at the entrance, interesting place to visit.
You can also drive with the car to the church.

Hace unos años además tenia más comercio, ahora destaca por su arquitectura (de las casas de la plaza), y por los sitios para comer. Está muy cerca la Confiteria Rufino, y varios sitios interesantes para comer.

Lavadero publico Fuente del Concejo

Reviewed By ferespidico - Seville, Spain

Según por donde entremos a Aracena, lo veremos en el camino de acceso a la Gruta de las Maravillas.
Es el tradicional lavadero, bien recuperado e intregrado en una zona de parque. Bonito para ver un momento, pero al estar ya muy dentro de núcleo urbano, no evoca epocas pasadas.

Iglesia de la Asuncion

Reviewed By Turista-Inglesa - Estepona, Spain

.
Sitting in the Plaza Alta - the Top Square - this church overshadows every other building. It's HUGE!
Inside follows the same theme of Over-The-Topness. Where on earth did they get the money to build such a large and decorated church?
Worth a visit.

Recinto fortificado – Aracena.
After you have visited the Iglesia Prioral Del Castillo, by leaving the church walk to the right again a bit uphill, and after about 100 meters you will arrive on the ruins from the “Recinto Fortificado” de Aracena, there is a stair to enter but on the moment of our visit it was closed, so we cannot show you some pictures from the inside, but when visiting the church you should also see this place.

La piazza su cui si affaccia anche il museo del jamon è una piazza moderna con una grande vasca centrale e una fontana in mezzo. Circondata da alberi e dedicata alle madri di Aracena è un luogo tranquillo.
