Discover Tolox through play

Marta Topo is the star of this family adventure in Tolox. She will guide you and give you clues to solve the game's questions. If you look closely at Marta, you will see that she is wearing traditional clothing and has dusted her face with talcum powder, just as people do in Tolox during one of the most important Carnival celebrations, Día de los Polvos. One of the most striking things about Tolox is how closely the village is integrated with nature. As you walk through its streets you will enjoy spectacular mountain views while discovering traces of its Muslim past in the street layout and traditional architecture. The game visits landmarks such as Calle Puerta de la Villa, once the entrance gate to Tolox's medieval walled enclosure. It also highlights distinctive architectural features of Muslim origin such as tinaos, adarves and passageways. You will make your way through winding, steep streets to Plaza de la Constitución, the Church of San Miguel and Plaza Alta. Along the way, numerous works of art decorating village walls will catch your eye. They are the result of an international art gathering known as Art Tolox, held in the town each year. Finally, you will visit Fuente Amargosa, famous for its therapeutic properties, and discover the Tolox spa. You can find more information to prepare your visit on the Tolox tourism website.
