The Barony of Polop refers to the historic old town of Altea, a picturesque area perched on a hill overlooking the Mediterranean. Visitors can wander through narrow, winding cobblestone streets lined with whitewashed houses adorned with colorful flower pots. The centerpiece is the Church of Our Lady of Consolation, with its iconic blue and white tiled dome. The atmosphere is tranquil and artistic, with many galleries and artisan shops. From the miradors, you get stunning panoramic views of the coast and the Sierra de Bernia mountains.
