Olvera, Spain

Views over the town from the Arab castle built in the 12th and 13th centuries but recently restored. Situated in the north-eastern corner of the Cadiz province and with a population of about 8,500, the beautiful Andalucian town of Olvera is one of the larger "pueblo blancos" (white villages)in the area with white houses, steep and narrow streets leading up to an old Arab fortress at the top of town. Close by is an impressive church, the 'Parroquia de Nuestra Señora de la Encarnación' (the Parish of Our Lady of the Incarnation). There are plenty more photos of Olvera and other Spanish towns if you take a look at my 'Sets' page, www.flickr.com/photos/36623892@N00/sets/ - thank you.
