Wonderful experience to visit medieval Arabian castle XI century Alcazaba with ancient ruins of the roman baths with mosaic floor, which are located down of the castle walls. Must see

Moorish ruins within the old town of Antequera on a strategic hilltop overlooking the entire valley. Free Parking at Alcazaba or along street. Can get a combined ticket with Real Colegiata next door. Or come on non festival Tuesday’s between 2:00 and 5:30 for free entrance to both!!! Enter the hilltop plaza containing the sites through the large Arcos. To the right is the Alcazaba. Nice gate entrance followed by garden of mainly green shrubbery. Wide walkway through the ruins leading to the main wall and 2 towers. The ruins are not much to see. Little more than holes and some rock walls. But the 2 towers and wall are excellent! Bell tower has interesting side rooms. One has 16 inch stone cannon shot. The old clock mechanism still remains. Nice views at top with bell. The plaza also has views of the Roman baths and of course the Arcos. It really is a good visit. Makes a great Antequera day visit with the Dolmens and The El Torcal rock formations! If you are heading back to Málaga, take the scenic route back on A7075 until it connects with A7!

Beautiful scenery and not many people around on weekdays in April. Basically no wait time, affordable tickets and free audio guide which can be scanned with QR code! Lovely place!
