The region of Andalusia in Southern Spain is famous for its rich moorish history, great (free!) food and Flamenco. It had been on the bucket list of me and my best friend for ages and we finally booked the backpacking trip and explored the region going from city to city by public transportation. It was an unforgettable and beautiful adventure!

I believe one of the best ways to experience a European city is by reaching its highest vantage point for a panoramic view! Sometimes you see rolling skylines, sometimes grand axes or meticulously planned districts, all reflecting deep history. However, when you climb to a city's most famous tower, you often lose a key focal point in your overlook. That’s why I’ve discovered many hidden overlook spots that won’t disrupt your perfect skyline photos or videos. Stay tuned and I'll update this guide through time! BE AWARE: this is a themed map spanning multiple cities or regions, but it doesn’t provide point-to-point navigation for a single trip. So, unless you’re particularly interested in this topic, please consider purchasing with caution! But if you still have bought it, thanks and please: save and always check on this map and visit any of the towers and castles when you are nearby. And I also add small notes for each place so you can quickly find what I like about this place. Enjoy viewing! BONUS - Two free guides: "My Real TravelSummary", & "Markets are distant lives".
