🏰🎉 The Colomares Castle was built as an emotional tribute to Christopher Columbus, a world-renowned explorer. Its unique architecture blends Gothic, Romanesque, and MudĂ©jar styles, creating an impressive monument.

â›ȘïžđŸ‘€ Inside, it houses the Church of Santa MarĂ­a, considered the smallest in the world according to the Catholic Church. With only 1.96 square meters, it is a picturesque place of worship full of history.

đŸ‘°đŸ€”â€â™‚ïž During a wedding held in this tiny church, the anecdote goes that only the priest could fit inside, due to its small size. Imagine the intimacy of that special moment in such a unique place!

🏰🌮 Located in the picturesque town of Benalmádena, the Colomares Castle rises majestically above the Mediterranean coast. Its imposing presence makes it a must-visit destination for travelers exploring the region.

Price is only 3 € adults and 2 € for children.
