Once in town you will find a number of charming squares featuring restaurants and shops. One of the main attractions in Mijas is the Donkey Taxi. You can ride a donkey taxi through the streets of Mijas or you can ride in a cart pulled by a donkey. Since Mijas is a tourist destination it is very easy to get by without speaking Spanish. Most of the restaurants offer English menus. When shopping, the prices are clearly marked in Euros. When we visited, the Euro and the dollar were about 1 to 1. </div> <bR> </tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 494 WIDTH="603"><div> <IMG SRC="1f958c20.jpg" border=0 width="600" height="450" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> One of the squares located in Mijas.

You can also drive on these streets. You will find yourself moving up off the street to let cars pass by throughout the day. Many shops close for siesta from 2:00 to 4:00 or 5:00. Be sure to plan your day with this in mind. Since Mijas is a tourist attraction, many shops and restaurants do stay open through siesta.</div> </tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 456 ><NOBR><div> <IMG SRC="1fd58c20.jpg" border=0 width="600" height="450" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> </NOBR></tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 19 ><NOBR><div> The town of Mijas nestled into one of the many hills of the Sierra de Mijas.</div> </NOBR></tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 456 ><NOBR><div> <IMG SRC="1ff58c20.jpg" border=0 width="600" height="450" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> </NOBR></tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 19 WIDTH="603"><div> View of the Costa Del Sol from the University in Mijas.</div> </tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 456 ><NOBR><div> <IMG SRC="20158c20.jpg" border=0 width="600" height="450" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> </NOBR></tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 38 WIDTH="603"><div> Cindy stops for a picture above one of the many restaurants in Mijas looking out over the Costa Del Sol. </div> </tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 456 ><NOBR><div> <IMG SRC="20358c20.jpg" border=0 width="600" height="450" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> </NOBR></tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 38 ><NOBR><div> One of the many horse drawn carriages offering transport throughout Mijas. </div> <div> This one is pulled by a beautiful Andalucian</div> </NOBR></tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 456 ><NOBR><div> <IMG SRC="20558c20.jpg" border=0 width="600" height="450" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> </NOBR></tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 76 WIDTH="603"><div> Our favorite shop in Mijas.
