Malaga
Málaga, known as 'the beautiful,' is located in the center of the basin that bears its name, in the space between the mountains, the Guadalhorce River, and the coastal strip leading to the Axarquía. With its two thousand eight hundred years of history, it is one of the oldest cities in Europe. Taking a stroll through the old town is an experience not to be missed.
The city has witnessed the greatest civilizations of the Mediterranean, from the Phoenicians and Greeks to the Romans, thanks to the strategic location of its port, an important enclave along the ancient trade routes.
Beyond its 16 sunny beaches, this Andalusian city on the Mediterranean coast offers a more than interesting cultural life. The birthplace of the genius Pablo Picasso has reinvented itself in recent years by renovating the Port, pedestrianizing some of the most important streets in the city center, and opening several museums such as the Picasso Museum, the Thyssen Museum, or the Automobile and Fashion Museum.
If we add an animated atmosphere, the abundant tapas served in its bars, trendy neighborhoods like Soho, areas like the port that have transformed to offer a more modern face, and monuments with centuries of history, the result is a fascinating city that anyone would want to visit. Because if everyone says that Málaga is more beautiful than ever, there must be a reason.
A Journey Through Time
Málaga is a city filled with historical spots like the Alcazaba, one of the largest Arab fortresses in Andalusia, or the Gibralfaro Castle, from where you can probably get the best views of the entire city. At the foot of the castle lies the Roman theater and a historic center made for strolling. As you walk its streets, you'll come across places like the Atarazanas Market for a vermouth and monuments like its Cathedral, known as 'La Manquita' (the one-armed lady) due to its unfinished right tower.
There are several things that give Málaga its unique touch. For starters, beyond the monuments, it's always a good idea to enjoy a sunny day at the legendary urban beach of La Malagueta. And those who want to immerse themselves in traditional flavors must visit the fishing neighborhood of Pedregalejo and try the typical 'espetos' (grilled sardines). Returning to La Malagueta, next to it is Muelle 1, a promenade at the port filled with shops and restaurants where it's a pleasure to walk at sunset until you reach La Farola, a lighthouse that is a symbol of the city. Another emblem of Málaga? Without a doubt, its pedestrian street Marqués de Larios, a lively walkway adorned with flowers that you must pass through at least once on a trip to Málaga.
Málaga also has the fourth most important airport in Spain (only behind Madrid, Barcelona, Palma de Mallorca) and the twenty-second within the European Union. In 2020, over 19 million passengers transited through this facility. Málaga Airport operates with terminals T1, T2, T3, a General Aviation terminal, and the Cargo terminal, with two runways.
Thanks to the recent expansion of the airport, traveling has become easier and has opened Andalusia to new routes around the world. The airport connects passengers to 118 national and international destinations and offers daily flights to more than 20 cities within Spain and over 60 European capitals.
