The wonderful picturesque Spanish town and municipality of Periana is in the province of Málaga, part of the autonomous community of Andalucia in southern Spain. It belongs to the comarca of La Axarquía. The municipality is situated approximately 23 kilometres from Vélez and 48 from the provincial capital of Málaga near the Sierra de Alhama. The natives are called Perianenses and their nickname is Los Manga Anchas or “The Wide-sleeved Ones”.
Periana lies on the river Guaro and that provides the water for the large reservoir which enriches the land and helps create an excellent climate and the perfect conditions for the cultivation of lemon and orange groves and other fruit trees, as well as bringing beautiful scenery to the surrounding landscape.
