Andalucia, Spain
AndalucÃa is the southernmost part of Spain, whose name comes from the ‘Al-Andalus,’ which refers to the regions of Spain that came under Arabic administration between 711 and 1492.
When Júzcar was painted blue as part of a marketing campaign for the Smurfs movie back in 2011, little did the residents know that they’d soon fall in love with their new cityscape, not to mention the rise in tourism it brought.
Andalusia has more to offer, and the different provinces are very distinct in their character, flavor, and landscape. The area is divided into eight separate provinces: Seville, Cádiz, Huelva, Málaga, Jaén, Granada and AlmerÃa.
The mild year-round climate in this pace makes it one of the most popular stops in Spain for travelers who come to enjoy both summer and winter vacations.
