- Plaza Virgen de la Peña - The tour begins with a visit to a monument dedicated to one of Mijas’ iconic symbols. “The Donkey Taxi” emerged as a major tourist attraction in the village during the 1980s.
- La Ermita Virgen De la Peña - This hermitage was carved into the rock by a Carmelite monk in the latter half of the 17th century. It houses the image of the Virgin of the Rock, Mijas’ patron saint, which, according to legend, was discovered in 1586 by two shepherd children guided to the site by a dove.
- Plaza de la Constitución - This is the village’s main square, surrounded by shops and bars. The square also features the village’s oldest fountain.
- Plaza de Toros de Mijas - Constructed in 1900 at the request of local residents, the Mijas bullring is set into the rock. Its entrance resembles a typical white house, and its most intriguing feature is its oval shape, one of the few in Spain.
- Iglesia Inmaculada Concepción - Construction of the current church began in the latter half of the 16th century and was completed by mid-1631. It is believed that this site was once a Muslim mosque, later consecrated as a Christian church.
- Parque La Muralla - This viewpoint is located on the south side of the village near the Immaculate Conception Church and the Mijas Bullring. It is built on the remnants of ancient walls originally designed to protect the city.
- Museo Histórico-Etnológico - Visiting the House Museum offers a journey through the ethnographic and historical past of this town. Visitors can explore the countryside and the Sierra Mijeña, with its scents of rosemary and thyme, learn about the lime production that colors and protects the town’s houses, discover the uses of esparto, the qualities of local honey, and the significance of marble quarries since Roman times. They can also handle the tools used by ancestors to cultivate the land, discover the ancient machinery for wine and oil production, and truly feel like a local during their visit, a sentiment perhaps inherited from a town that, long before tourism, traversed these lands.
