Placa de Toros in Mijas Pueblo

Even though it’s nowadays considered unacceptable and too cruel, the bullfighting is undeniably an important part of the Spanish history. The country is full of mostly discontinued bullfight arenas. Mijas is no different. The bullfight arena of Mijas was built in 1900 and is located in the center of Mijas Pueblo just next to the local church in the hills of the coastal mountains at an altitude of 430 meters above the sea level. The arena is nowadays a museum and the entrance is via the souvenir shop in the building. Tickets are fairly cheap and only cost 3 euros per person. Inside the building it’s easy to feel the old times. It’s easy to imagine the arena full of people and the noisy bullfight. I recommend you to visit Mijas Pueblo if you’re visiting Costa del Sol area in Spain. You can access Mijas Pueblo from Fuengirola by car or taxi in about 15 minutes. It’s also conveniently located near the highway AP-7. There’s a big public parking at the center which I recommend you to use. Otherwise finding a parking is very difficult. #mijas #costadelsol #spain #bullfight #urbanexplorer #historicculture#culturalattractions
