Beyond its narrow streets and tunnels, the city has an alleyway only 68 cm wide, the Callejón del Beso, the alley of love, made infamous by the forbidden kisses that Ana and Carlos exchanged from their respective balconies until Ana’s father caught them and murdered his daughter. Nowadays, tourists exchange permitted kisses there!
