Antequera
Antequera
Antequera, an hour north of Málaga, is renowned for its Dolmens de Antequera, ancient rock funeral pyres scattered throughout the historical town. The oldest among them, the Menga dolmen, was built around 2500 BC. The nearby Viera and El Romeral dolmens are believed to have been built between 2000 and 1800 BC. The latter is considered the most spectacular, with a false dome comprised of stones carried from the nearby Veracruz quarry and circular chambers connected by a long gallery. While you’re in Antequera, visit the Torcal de Antequera, and follow the sign-posted trails through a mind-boggling natural creation of strangely eroded calcareous rock. Great gray slabs that look like gigantic skipping stones are stacked like pancakes, while others are shaped like building blocks and crude boulders.
