Frigiliana  -  general description

Do you love the sea but don't want to live right on the lively coast? Then Frigiliana is the right place for you. Art, culture, sociable Andalusian life in one of the most beautiful villages in Andalusia.

Frigiliana, the well-known mountain village, is located in the eastern Axarquia just a few kilometres from the popular coastal town of Nerja and the beautiful beaches of the Costa del Sol. The narrow streets of the historic quarter are decorated with flowers and become narrower and steeper the higher you go. Even if it is sometimes a little difficult in the very hot summer temperatures, a walk through the historic quarter is definitely worthwhile. If you're fortunate, you'll find homemade jams, fresh fruits from the garden or other homemade specialities for sale in front of the neat old town houses. You should definitely take advantage of this opportunity, because it doesn't get much more authentic and delicious than this. Gourmets also get their money's worth here. The restaurants, some of which are hidden in beautiful old buildings, offer typical Andalusian dishes as well as international specialities. There are also cosy bars serving excellent tapas with wonderful regional wine.

Frigiliana is also famous for its sugar cane honey. This is not produced by bees, but consists of 100 % sugar cane juice. Dark, sweet with a slight bitter note reminiscent of liquorice. A real experience for honey lovers. And only here in the charming Frigliana is there the only factory in Europe that produces this delicacy. This sugar cane honey is very versatile. It is suitable for desserts, salad dressings, marinades and much more. Frigiliana has much to offer that is worth discovering.
