Torrox is a municipality in the province of Málaga in the autonomous community of Andalucía southern Spain. It belongs to the comarca of Axarquía. Torrox is located in the Costa del Sol (specifically the Costa del Sol Oriental), on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea and the foothills of the Sierra de Almijara.

The word Torrox comes from Arab that means “tower.” However, several studies have proved that the first inhabitants of this place in the province of Malaga were the Phoenicians, and the Romans, who develop the commercial and fishing industry (famous is the garum sauce) in the area. Later on, Torrox was occupied by the Arabs, when it became the silk collecting centre, which then used to be sent to Málaga and Granada. Torrox was conquered by the Christians in 1488.

This place is frequented especially by German and British tourists. The city itself is divided into sections: Torrox Costa on the sea and Torrox Pueblo, 4 km inland. Torrox Park, a housing section in between the costa and the village, could be seen as another division. Torrox is located in close proximity to Nerja.

With an average year round temperature of 18ºC, Torrox is a land of eternal spring and has become the jewel in the crown of the Costa del Sol by managing to always be warm. This fortunate climate is due to the Valley of the River Torrox, whose river limits temperature extremes as it opens up to the sea, whilst at the same time the surrounding mountains keep out strong winds.

The town possesses an interesting cultural heritage such as an archaeological site with a Roman forum and the church of Nuestra Señora de la Encarnación. The first is home to the remains of a Roman town, that flourished between the first and forth century AD. The church of Nuestra Señora de la Encarnación was built in the 16th century and extended in the 17th. Its ceilings are made of wooden Mudéjar framework, and outside its tower rises up in a rectangular prism form, and is crowned with a pyramid shaped spire.

In summer, the central Plaza de la Constitución welcomes buildings such as the Casa de la Joya, the Town Hall and the Church of Nuestra Señora de la Encarnación, the Fuente de los Chorros and the statue of El Miguero. However, its most appealing feature are the 600 colourful umbrellas with which the square gets decorated in summer, which aims to add splendid touches of colour to the place and provide shadow to beat the heat.
