areas: |
 |
| Benalmádena
Pueblo, the original village, which lies about three kilometres inland
at an elevation of approximately 200 m above mean sea level. Its core consists
of a typical white-fronted Andalusian village, although much recent building
in modern architectural styles has somewhat detracted from its character.

artefacts dating back to the Bronze Age. |

Benalmádena Costa,
an urban agglomeration on the coast. Here there are discos, hotels, beaches,
shopping centers and an extensively-equipped marina. Tourist attractions
include SeaLife aquarium and Selwo Marina, a theme park with dolphins,
penguins and seals among other species. The Parque Paloma is a more recent
addition to the attractions, a landscaped park containing a large lake
and animals running wild. Also featuring an
award winning marina with great choice in shops and restaurants. The marina
was voted the best in the world by International Property Magazine in 1995.
Arroyo de la Miel, originally
a separate village, is in the interior between the other two areas. It
has become the main residential area, and is also the most commercially
active. Buildings are tightly packed and tend to be apartment blocks. It
also has several attractions such as the Tivoli World amusement park, and
a teleferico (cable car running to the summit of the 769-metre Calamorro
mountain, which provides panoramic views of the Sierra Nevada, Gibraltar
and on clear days, the Moroccan coastline. Arroyo de la Miel translates
as "Stream of Honey" in English. In Arroyo de la Miel, (Avenida Garcia
