A walk through the streets of Iznate and its slopes adapted to the unevenness of the terrain is an experience for travellers. White façades adorned with flowerpots, colourful flowerbeds and secluded corners and squares form a network that evokes the Andalusian past of this village in the Axarquia region.

Strolling through the narrow, steep streets of Iznate, in the Plaza de la Virgen de los Dolores you will find the Fuente Blasonada. Its name comes from the coat of arms that decorates it, belonging to the Marquisate of Campos. Two other emblematic fountains are the Fuente de Moguera and the Fuente del Encime, also known as the Fuente de los Tres Deseos (Fountain of the Three Wishes). Both were built during the period of Muslim domination.

Situated in the highest part of the village, this magnificent tourist facility dominates the municipality of Iznate with breathtaking views. With views to the North of the Sierra Tejeda Almijara, to the South of the Mediterranean, as well as practically the whole of the Eastern Costa del Sol, from Nerja, passing through Torrox, Torre del Mar and reaching as far as Malaga Capital.

This is another fountain of Arab origin in Iznate whose name is not known for sure whether it is Moguera or Noguera, attributed to a large walnut tree that grew next to the fountain. The people of Iznate still draw their water from this crystal clear spring on hot summer days, and it is even customary on summer afternoons to go for a stroll to where it is located and on the way take advantage of the opportunity to fill the occasional botijo (water jug).

Situated in the highest part of the village, in the "Loma Barcos", this magnificent tourist facility dominates the municipality of Iznate with breathtaking views.
