Enix
Enix is situated at
723 metres on the gentle lower slopes of the Sierra de Gador facing
the coast. It is well known
locally for the water it possesses and the Moors built a total of
twenty drinking fountains in the town of which, some
are still used today. Enix was previously known for its mines which
are now abandoned and previously brought it its wealth. It is a
rustic enclave of Moorish origin, which preserves its original
features in its architecture of narrow graded streets with white
flat-roofed houses and the surrounding land is rich with almond and
fruit trees.
Félix lies in the eastern part of the Sierra de Gador on the
southern slopes with an old fortress that overlooks the typically
white Moorish dwellings. The pueblo has the luxury of its own spring
that supplies the village with water and magnificent views of the
Alpujarra area.
