And the views are just breathtaking, we relaxed a bit and had some refreshments before leaving🤍 While we walked back, we stopped to have coffee at one of the cafes, it was really cozy and the server was friendly, recommended their best coffee and even gave us some biscuits.

💙A One-of-a-kind Town You Must Visit💙

🇪🇸Serene Setenil🇪🇸 As we walk into this little city in the province Cádiz, we are beheld with an absolute wonder of a sight~ white houses and establishments like cafes, restaurants~ built into rocks🪨 This town is most famous for its unusual cave houses built directly underneath the boulders of a deep canyon. This canyon was formed naturally by the water from the creek below, creating this incredible landscape. We have never seen anything quite like it and it was mesmerizing✨ Setenil’s most distinctive feature however, is the town’s large number of cave homes. The whitewashed buildings literally seem to grow out of the mountain or to be physically embedded in the rockface. Many dwellings have a single external wall. The rest of the living quarters will expand underneath the protruding overhang. Dug out of the porous sandstone by enlarging the natural caves that the river created millions of years ago. This innovative design makes Setenil one of the most original villages not only in Spain, but in all Europe. Many establishments here are situated within the caves, providing a one-of-a-kind ambiance. I enjoyed a place called Terracotta for a hot coffee and I also brought a bottle of non filtered olive oil which has an amazing flavor! I highly recommend buying a bottle when you go there. Pictured above are some of the places I saw, there are more and nice places to chill and have a drink or food Tip: Go in the early afternoon and enjoy lunch then walk around and be mesmerized #summerdestinations #freehotelstay #familytrip #localguides #spaintrip #historicallandmarks #mytravelhacks #passionpassport #awesomepic #urbanexplorer #spain #foodie #asiatrip #mustdo #food #trip

🤍Stunning White Houses in Setenil⚪️

🇪🇸Serene Setenil🇪🇸 Envisage a town concealed in a gorge with houses dug into the mountainside. A destination virtually unknown to tourists a decade ago, yet where history goes back millennia. Now THIS is an interesting place to visit. —The Hidden White Village— Setenil forms part of the route of Andalucía’s White Villages. Yet the town has something none of the other Pueblos Blancos possess. Whereas most white villages are on high ground, Setenil is embedded into a narrow river gorge. Approaching from the surrounding mountain plateau, you cannot see any sign of an upcoming town. Like Alberta’s Badlands, the road dips into a crevice, in Setenil’s case created by the Río Trejo and Río Guadalporcún. —-A Perfect Daytrip— Merely 30 minutes drive from Ronda, Setenil is a favourite place for us to take visitors. You can see the entire town in a morning. Though I believe one should never miss the chance of having lunch under a suspended rock! #summerdestinations #freehotelstay #familytrip #localguides #spaintrip #historicallandmarks #mytravelhacks #passionpassport #awesomepic #urbanexplorer #spain #foodie #asiatrip #mustdo #food #trip
