Streets and Squares
The sweet aroma of jasmine and orange blossom fill the air. This scene captivates the passer by, who looks around and leisurely perceives the whitewashed walls tingled here and there with multicoloured geraniums and carnations whilst feeling under foot, the cobble- stones of whose narrow tranquil streets. The quiet bubbling of one of the many fountains can be heard nearby. It is a moment of magic. One has discovered The Old Town and is enjoying it to the full.
The Plaza de los Naranjos - Orange Square - so named for
its orange trees, its centre. The surrounding streets
take us back to the ages.
The streets Panaderķa, Pasaje, Cruz, De los Caballeros
(which means "Streets of the Knights" and down
which the knights of the Catholic Kings strolled alter
recapturing the city from the Moors), Remedios, Virgen
de los Dolores and Ortiz del Molinillo are just some of
those filled with plants and flowers draping the walls.
Valdés with its shops, San Lázaro with is
numerous bars and taverns, Pantaleon and Buitrago, picturesque
and narrow, flank the Africa square, with its 18th century
street lamp proudly standing in its centre.
Numerous are the streets full of history such as the majestic
Plaza de La Iglesia - Church Square - Trinidad, Salinas
and Portada streets which border the old Moorish castle
wall. Viento Hospital Bazán, Pelleja, Apartada,
Mendoza streets and Plaza de Altamiro- a square to rest
in the labyrinth of little streets- forming part of the
old Moorish quarters which extend down Misericordia, Soledad,
Alderete, Caridad and Muro street, which marks the boundary
of the old city.
From the delightful little aquare Plaza de Manuel Cantos,
we can go down Tetuán street until Enrique del
Catillo, once one of the southern entrances to the old
town centre. Further up we can find José Palomo
square, situated on the site of one of the three gates
to the city, these being Puerta del Mar , Puerta de Ronda
and Puerta de Málaga - The sea gate, Ronda gate
and Málaga gate -. Moving on from this little aquare,
either down Alameda or Fortaleza streets we come to Pedraza
leadind us in turn to the peaceful Victoria Square, with
its fountain decorated with little frogs which inspired
and enchanting tale in their day.
After crossing Castillejos street - The West entrance
to the old town - Huerta Chica street leads us up to Peral
street , with its many little shops and bars, till you
come to Puente De Ronda square and from here on to calle
Ancha - The Broad Street- to the neighbourhood of San
Francisco, first expansion of Marbella to the North, also
called Barrio Alto the High quarters). This part is not
so well known, but is still full of the simple wonders
of whitewashed walls decorated with colourful flowers.
Walk along the long Aduar street or try the tranquillity
of the Rafina, Princesa, Montenebros, Príncipe
and Santo Cristo square, which harbours the church of
the same name, one of the oldest buildings of Marbella.
