  Here the patio has been enclosed by an attractive glass roof; when the house was first built, this was open to the sky.

  This square is in memory of him; the green and white striped flag of Andalucia was his invention, so there is more than one way of remembering him. Have you noticed how, on the seafront promenade, there are green and white stripes marking the steps down to the beach?

  It is also very central for seeing other sights of Estepona: the Castle, the Torre del Reloj (Clock Tower), and of course the gorgeous flower-decked streets. Right opposite you, for example, is Calle Cruz - have you ever seen anything so delightful?

  If you are not quite sure, Moorish times here in Andalusia refers to the period between 711 and 1492 when the Muslim Caliphs of Cordoba and Emirs of Granada ruled. Over 700 years of Islamic history – the Romans were in Britain for only 400 years.

  Es un espacio recoleto, tranquilo y apacible donde se puede descansar, leer o relajarse en el centro de la ciudad. Con el museo arqueológico a unos pasos

  And look at the handsome house - it's the town museum. It is worth going into the building even if you don’t want to see the museum exhibits, as it is built in the typical 18th century style of a rich gentleman's dwelling. You start with a large entrance porch, called a Zaguan. Traditionally these have been considered part of the street rather than the house, and so in the past beggars or vendors might set up there, and people had no compunction about sheltering inside out of the occasional winter rainstorm.

  All around the patio at first-floor level is a beautiful balcony, now glassed in but originally open to the patio. This balcony is in fact the corridor giving access to the rooms at that level; a handsome staircase leads up there. Traditionally, the maids lived further up above in the attics, rooms too hot in winter and too cold in summer for the ladies and gentlemen to inhabit!

  The square is nice a nice spot to sit and rest, or read a book, as it is quiet (surrounded by mainly pedestrian streets, and shady with trees. There are roses and other flowers, and a statue of a nymph to keep you company. You'll also see there one of the pretty ceramic plaques with a poem on it - part of the Ruta de la Poesia.

  The Zaguan always leads to a central patio, here we have a beautiful example. In the centre is the well leading to the "aljibe" after which the house was named - a very old water storage tank said to date back to Moorish times.

  This is the square directly in front of the Casa del Aljibe – the former Town Hall and now the Museo Arqueologico de Estepona.

  The square itself is very attractive, with flowers, a statue and a cannon. It is surrounded by a balcony-like balustrade painted in the traditional ochre-yellow and white. Just across the road are several pleasant bars for refreshment.

  It is named after Blas Infante - the "Father of Andalucia" as he is known, who was born up the road in the little white-washed town of Casares, but executed, precisely for his Andalusian views, in the Spanish Civil War.
