Places in Spain - Alhaurín de la Torre (Costa del Sol)

 

Located in the province of Malaga, this town has grown over the last few years, beyond recognition. Unlike the nearby Alhaurín el Grande, this town has failed to preserve much of its history.

 

   

The recent improvement of the major highways in the area, especially the N340 is at the root of Alhaurín de la Torre's economic resurrection and cultural decline.  There is no doubt that with the current boom of building in full swing, it will soon outdo Alhaurín el Grande in size and population.

 

The biggest attraction for visitors to Alhaurín de la Torre is undoubtedly the gardens of El Retiro. Founded in the 17th Century by Fray Alonso de Santo Tomás, Bishop of Málaga, and originally used by him as his retirement home (hence, El Retiro) the gardens display an impressive variety of plant and wild life. Each section attempts to recreate the natural habitat of the creatures housed in it, from semi-desert to tropical swamp. The manor house at its centre has also been impressively restored.
