The welcoming city of Málaga lies on the southern coast of Spain, in the very center of the famous resort area Costa del Sol. It is the second largest city in Andalusia, renowned for its old streets, leafy boulevards, and lush gardens. As a result of its tumultuous history, Málaga has an amazing heritage in the form of a specific blend of Moorish and Christian traditions, architectural complexes of all styles and directions, as well as the reputation of being one of the most “alive” cities in the country.
A walk along the city’s main boulevard – Avenida Principal – will allow you to see the elegant palace Palacio de la Aduana (18th century), Antiguo Correo (the old post office, early 20th century) and the stunning neobaroque building of the municipality (20th century). Among the monuments from earlier periods is the whimsical cathedral of Málaga (16th century), the majestic fortress Alcazaba (palace of the Moorish rulers of Málaga, 9th century) with two rings of walls, numerous towers, and fortified gates, the lighthouse castle of Gibralfaro
