Instead of settling on Andalucía’s plains, where they would have fallen prey to bandits, some Andalucíans chose to live in fortified hilltop towns and villages. These are known as pueblos blancos (white towns) because they are whitewashed in the Moorish tradition. Touring these charming settlements will reveal a host of references to the region’s past.
