This wide pedestrianised boulevard is the focal point of Alcalá la Real where people meet during their evening 'paseos'. It also plays host to the markets and fairs which take place all through the year.
The Paseo de Alamos is a 10 min walk from the bus station and is well signposted. If you get lost just ask the friendly locals.
El Llanillo is the heart and soul of the town with its streets slowly winding up the hill to La Mota castle. Just get lost and seek out its hidden historic gems. Amongst the whitewashed houses with roses around the balconies are nineteenth century architectural wonders such as churches and arcades.
El Llanillo is all of Alcalá la Real! All streets leading off the central square take you into the district.
