Ubrique is one of the municipalities that make up the so-called “White Villages” of the Sierra de Cádiz, characterized by a winding urban layout of Arabic origin and interesting popular architecture, with white facades and sloping roofs of tiles. Ubrique is located in the Valley of the Aljibe, crossed by the Arroyo Seco River that acts as the lower axis from where the city develops on steep slopes: the new zone ascends towards the west, and the historic city ascends towards the Cumbres del Caíllo, on the east.
