Spain stands out for the diversity and beauty of its cities, towns and villages. That is why National Geographic travel magazine has compiled a list of the towns it recommends visiting before the end of 2024.

Among the top ten towns in the ranking, there is only one in the Andalucía region. It is Olvera, in tenth place, famous for its monumental castle and the imposing church of Nuestra Señora de la Encarnación.

This National Geographic list offers a total of 100 locations nationwide but, if we only consider the recommendations for the Andalucía region, the publication has highlighted 12 towns located in the provinces of Cadiz, Malaga, Huelva, Jaén and Cordoba. The provinces of Seville and Almeria are not represented in the list.
