| Antequera
- on the main rail line to Granada, is an ordinary, modern town, but
it does have peripheral attractions in a Baroque church, El Carmen, which
houses one of the finest retablos in Andalucía, and a group of three
prehistoric dolmen caves. The most impressive and famous of these is the
Cueva de Menga, its roof formed by an immense 180-tonne monolith. To reach
this, and the nearby Cueva de Viera (same hours), take the Granada road
out of town - the turning, rather insignificantly signposted, is after
about 1km on the left. A third cave, El Romeral (same hours), is rather
different (and later) in its structure, with a domed ceiling of flat stones. |
