Malaga is reachable via the A45, north of Antequera and Cordoba. As a tourist hotspot, there are many amusements on offer for visitors, including the Municipal Theatre, which is home to shows by both international and local performers, the Contemporary Art Centre, the Picasso Foundation and many public libraries. La Alcazaba – a military fortress built by the Moors in the eleventh century – is one of the most impressive structures in the city and a tourist highlight. Further afield, the Maro-Cerro Gordo Cliffs offer great views of the landscape and the chance to view rural Spain from a different angle.
Malaga is one of the most well renowned cities of culture in the whole of Spain, and as a result there are many festivities occurring throughout the year. These include the Andalusia holiday and International Labour Day. San Juan is one of the longest days of the year and should your trip coincide with this particular celebration (which occurs on the twenty-third of June) you’ll be treated to parties on the beaches as well as campfires. Other festive highlights include the October celebration of so-called ‘Spanish Day’. |
