The Stupa Benalm\u00e1dena <\/strong> is a beautiful Buddhist temple which symbolises Buddha\u2019s enlightenment, a place of meditation and harmony. It is the largest stupa in Europe which was built in 2003 by Polish architect Woitek Kossowski. Located a short walk from the Benalm\u00e1dena\u2019s old town, the Stupa features a distinctive gold spire and inside there is a large 100 square metre meditation room painted with images of Buddha\u2019s life story which is free to enter. Apart from the tranquil atmosphere and opportunity for contemplation, the views across the coastline from this elevated position are breath-taking. There is a small shop selling literature and Tibetan artifacts and gifts like flags and incense.<\/p>

Located just a few minutes\u2019 walk from the Stupa, towards Benalm\u00e1dena Costa, there is the Benalm\u00e1dena Butterfly Park (Mariposario de Benalm\u00e1dena<\/a>) housing over 1,500 species of butterflies.

If you would like to experience the traditional Andalusian village lifestyle, you must visit the Benalm\u00e1dena\u2019s pueblo, it has a completely different character to the more-flashy Benalm\u00e1dena Costa and the business area of Arroyo de la Miel. It is a chance to slow down, meander around the narrow, cobbled streets lined with typical whitewashed houses, most of which are festooned with colourful flowers. There are plenty of restaurants and bars offering traditional Spanish dishes such as fried fish and grilled sardines. Like every Spanish village, there is a lovely central plaza, \u2018Plaza de Espa\u00f1a\u2019, beautiful churches and plenty of history. It is also here that you\u2019ll find the Castillo Colomares mentioned earlier.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
