Vejer de la Frontera<\/strong> crowns a hill ten kilometres from the sea and is one of C\u00e1diz\u2019s best-preserved white villages.<\/p>\n

You can explore it on foot in one day<\/strong>, but there are two things to know before heading uphill.<\/p>\n\n

\u26a0\ufe0f First things first: the castle closes on Sundays<\/h2>\n

And it hosts flamenco on Friday and Saturday evenings.<\/strong> These two facts determine when to visit:<\/p>\n\n\n

Practical advice:<\/strong> the upper area is pedestrianised and full of steep streets. Leave the car below and walk up<\/strong> to Plaza de Espa\u00f1a. Wear comfortable shoes, not flip-flops.<\/p>\n\n

1. Plaza de Espa\u00f1a, the \u201clittle fish square\u201d<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Plaza<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It is the centre of everything and the starting point.<\/strong> It is known as the \u201clittle fish square\u201d for its central fountain decorated with Sevillian tiles<\/strong>, topped with frog figures.<\/p>\n

Around it:<\/strong> the town hall, whitewashed mansions and terrace bars. All the uphill streets towards the walled area start here.<\/p>\n

Two streets worth exploring:<\/strong><\/p>\n
