| CASTILLÉJAR
is a small village of around 2100 inhabitant, which lies
to the northeast of the Granada province, at some 776
m above sea level. Due to its proximity to both the Castril
Sierra Natural Park Castril and Cazorla, it is an excellent
stop-off along the various tourist routes of the Sierra
de Baza and Sierra de Castril Natural Parks, the Negratín
Resevoir, Sierras de la Sagra, and local archeological
finds. |
|
| Cave-Houses. One
of the most unique characteristics of this area are its
cave houses. In Castilléjar you can visit the Cruz
nieghbourhood with its many cave houses, the historical
caves of La Balunca and La Morería. Nowadays the
cave houses have the same home comforts as a normal home.
The original arquitecture excavated in rock has the added
advantage of being cut off from outside noises and maintains
an inside temperature of around 16-20 degrees year round. |
