Description
Pictured residences of Sentenil de Las Bodegas, one of the white villages in the province of Cadiz, Andalusia, Spain. It is surrounded by its agricultural base of olive trees. The town grew out of a network of caves in the cliffs so that its blinding white houses seem to emerge from the rocks, and some have rock roofs and even olive groves on their roofs. There has been a human settlement here since at least Arabic Almohad period in the 12th Century, and likely much earlier as objects have been found in the caves that are 5000 years old.
