Seville Local
Aracena is a beautiful whitewashed village in the mountains of Huelva province. It’s about 90 kilometers northwest of Sevilla and can be reached by car in less than 90 minutes. While the mountains are quite picturesque, many come to see Gruta de las Maravillas grotto, one of Spain's largest caves. The village has ancient fortifications, a castle from the 13th century, and the beautiful Nuestra Señora del Mayor Dolor church.
