    11. THE MOST ROMANTIC VILLAGE IN ANDALUCÍA

    The most romantic village in Andalucía is Villanueva de la Concepción, found in Malaga, because among its streets of whitewashed houses, the City Council has written phrases such as “teach me how to forget to think” and “dream of me and I’ll dream of you”, plus indubitably everyone’s favourite: “kiss me at this corner”. Although it doesn’t take much to fall in love with any village of Andalucía, with this handicap… if you don’t find the love of your life, then you simply don’t want to.

    The night begins by observing the sky with the naked eye, where they teach you to identify and know the constellations. Then, you’ll use telescopes to observe objects in the ‘deep sky’ and, if you see a star you like, you can dedicate it, as the Observatory will record its location and send you an email with a certificate, stating it’s yours.
