On the east side of town is the Cueva de Nerja (caves of Nerja). They were discovered in 1959 and are regarded as one of the most historic monuments in the world; with archaeological remains dating back over 20,000 years. The ‘Room of the Cataclysm’ reaches the height of sixty metres, and is formed by the fusion of amazing stalagmites and stalactites. In the month of July the caves play host to the International Festival of Music and Dance, an event not to be missed!
