This town is known for its Moreria neighbourhood,
with its narrow and mysterious streets and its brick
and stone mansions of the nobility such as the casa
de los Bañones or the Casa de los Arcos. Another
priceless visit would be to the castle of the Marqués
de los Velez whose interior decorations were so impressive
that today they can only be seen in the metropolitan
Museum of New York. Outside the historic district,
you can only be seen in the Metropolitan museum of
New York. Outside the historic district you can plan
trips to the nature Park to see such typical mountain
villages as chirivel or maría.
You should visit the Letreros Cave in Centro de Maimón
where you can see a series of rock paintings of such
value that this cave was declared a National Monument
and Heritage of Humanity. But everyone knows that
two of the best things about velez-Blanco are the
water and the wine-separately, of course. The water,
for the many attractive fountains provided by the
town and the wine separately, of course. The water
for the many attractive fountains provided by the
town, and the wine because besides being good it is
miraculous. On the day of the santísimo Cristo
de la Yadre the wound in the image’s side washed
with wine that then is shared, along with baked potatoes
with all the residents because it is believed to have
curative powers.
