GUADALAJARA
|
 |
GUADALAJARA , north from Alcalá de Henares, is not terribly exciting despite its famous name. Severely battered during the Civil War, it's now a small industrial city, provincial and scruffy. There are, however, a few worthwhile buildings which survi... |

GRANADILLA
|
 |
The bustling administrative market town of GRANADILLA acts as a focal point for the surrounding towns and villages. Off the busy main road that cuts through the workaday town centre is its quainter heart, where elegant townhouses line quiet side stre... |

GRANADA
|
 |
If you see only one town in Spain it should be GRANADA . For here, extraordinarily well preserved and in a tremendous natural setting, stands the Alhambra - the most exciting, sensual and romantic of all European monuments. It was the palace-fortress... |

GOLF DEL SUR
|
 |
As the name suggests, golf is the main business in the GOLF DEL SUR , site of two courses and proposed locations for a further three. In fact there's little else here, save for a modest, unfinished commercial centre, CC San Blas ; containing a few ba... |

GARACHICO
|
 |
Clustered on a small flat shelf base of immense cliffs beside a deep harbour, GARACHICO was, along with La Laguna and La Orotava, one of the first crop of important towns on the island. The town's narrow cobbled streets, rough fisherman's cottages an... |

FUENGIROLA
|
 |
FUENGIROLA , fifteen minutes along the train line from Torremolinos, is very slightly less developed and infinitely more staid. It's not so conspicuously ugly, but it is distinctly middle-aged and family-oriented. The huge, long beach has been divide... |

FIGUERES
|
 |
FIGUERES , a provincial town with a population of some thirty thousand, would pass almost unnoticed were it not for the Museu Dalí , installed by Salvador Dalí in a building as surreal as the exhibits within. It's a popular day-trip from Barcelona, t... |

FERRERIES
|
 |
The next town along the C721 is FERRERIES , an appealing little place, no more than a village really. There's little to detain you here, though one definite plus is the Vimpi bar on the plaza at the entrance to town, which serves some of the tastiest... |

ESTEPONA
|
 |
The coast continues to be upmarket (or "money-raddled" as Laurie Lee put it) until you reach ESTEPONA , about 30km west of Marbella, which is a more or less Spanish resort - in as much as that's possible round here. It lacks the enclosed hills that g... |

ES MERCADAL
|
 |
Nine kilometres northwest of Alaior you arrive at ES MERCADAL , squatting amongst the hills at the very centre of the island. Another old market town, it's an amiable little place of whitewashed houses and trim allotments whose antique centre straddl... |
