This new \u2018makeover\u2019 is sure to be a big hit amongst tourists and locals and will \u00a0help to maintain Mijas\u2019 position as \u2018must-visit\u2019 destination for all who travel to the Costa del Sol.<\/p>\n<p>The pots will be painted in vivid blues and greens which against the whitewashed walls of the buildings will represent the colours of the Mijas Flag. At the moment there are approximately 400 hooks installed for holding the plant pots but this figure will soon be increased to 1000, an impressive number for such a small town!<\/p>\n<p>According to the towns planning councillor, Manuel Navarro, the plant pots will be filled with geraniums, ferns, adelfas and other aromatic species such as rosemary and lavender which will undoubtedly create some spectacular photo opportunities, not to mention the incredible scents and aromas \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>There is no doubt that this new initiative is set to reinforce Mijas\u2019 position and reputation as a true Andalusian White Village. We hope you\u2019ll get a chance to head up into the hills and see this new \u2018makeover\u2019 for yourselves!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tweet The town of Mijas is famous for its whitewashed buildings, picturesque setting overlooking the Coast and, of course, its donkeys!
