It has a Muslim castle-fortress carved into rock that figured in the siege of San Fernando. It is worthy of witnessing its Holy Week the picturesque streets of Zuheros are a beautiful setting for the precessions that presents proclamations, living apostles and the moving meeting of Jesus from Nazareth with the Virgin of Dolores on the morning of good Friday in the Plazuela del Santo.

paintings in Andalusia. The most impressive is the Los Murcielagos
cave. It has a length of two kilometres of which 800 metres can
be visited. A tour will take an hour included some seven hundred

formations of stalactites and stalagmites as well as Neolithic
archaeological sites.
