Sheltered by the hills of the Sierra Blanca, Marbella, 25Km further west, stands in considerable contrast to most of what's come before. Since it attracted the attentions of the smart set in 1960s the town has zealously polished its reputation as the Costa del Sol's most stylish resort. Glitz comes at a price, of course, and many of the chic restaurants, bars and cafés cash in on hte hype and evrything costs considerably more. Marbella has the highest per capita income in Europe and more Rolls Royces than any European city apart from London. Recently the Spanish governement and local police have been exercised by the arrival in Marbella of russian and Italian Mafia bosses who have been bying up property and using Marbella as a base of criminal empires, while in an ironic twist of history, there's been a massive return of Arabs to the area, especially since King Fahd of saudi Arabia built a White House lookalike, complete with adjacent mosque, on the town's outskirt's, where he and a veritable army of courtiers and servants spend the summer months.
But to be fair, the town has been spared the worst exesses of concrete architecture and also retains the greater part of its old town.
