With a cheap car, you reach Almería from the West on the A7 or from the airport to the East of the AL-12, which runs along the coastal road to the port. The Rambla de Belen, the Paseo de Almería, as well as the junction of Puerta de Purchena are used to find your way through the maze of the old town alleys. Central square is the Plaza Vieja. Alcazaba, the imposing fortress on a Hill West of the old town is well signposted. The second largest Moorish fortress is undoubtedly the main attraction of Almeria.

Another landmark of the city is the Cathedral. Built in the 16th century, is like a fortress than to a church and more.
