Introduction :
|
|
The municipal district of Monda is situated on the southern border of the Guadalhorce valley region at the foot of the Coastal Mountain Range. The presence of these sierras bring a scenery of great beauty to this district, as much in the area of the Sierra Alpujata near the municipalities of Ojén and Coín, as in the area of the Sierra Canucha, which is the continuation on the north of the Sierra Blanca in Marbella.

History:
|
|
Some historians place the famous battle of Munda between Caesar and Pompey here, but it has not totally been proven; at least not where the present town stands. What does seem true is that with the entrance of the Muslims in the peninsula, the lands which today form the municipality were integrated into the defensive system of the Guadalhorce valley, by the construction of its castle.

Places to Visit:
|
|
It is a beautiful town in the Guadalhorce region, to the point that the whole area has been declared a picturesque landscape, in which the stony steep streets, in spite of the new buildings, still conserve their tradtionalism with highly placed doorways to avoid the torrents when it rains.
