Tiers of mountains, looking in the distance as if they had bubbled up in peaks out of one huge mass, the fan leaf palm growing in bushes, the sides of the near hills covered with 210 A WINTEE TOUR IN SPAIN. Vines the " mountain " wine is made from these and along the edges and close to the road is a profusion of broad-leaved blue flowers. Loja is a large town..., and was once a fortress of great importance, being considered by the Moors as the key to Granada ; they lost it in 1488, and Lord Rivers, brother of Henry VII. 's queen, lost his teeth during the siege. Isabella the Catholic recompensed him with a pretty compliment. Loja is like a huge mound, with its fortress, now a mere ruin, on the top. The streets are narrow ; but since the opening of the railway from here to Granada new houses are springing up, and the people stirring themselves. Marshal Narvaez, the late prime minister, was building himself a very fine house ; now that his death will stop its completion there is a talk of turning it into an hotel ; one is much wanted, though there was a new one opened just before we were there.
