About Malaga

Malaga, porto andaluso sulla Costa del Sol e città natale di Picasso: fortezza moresca, spiagge cittadine e vivace scena museale.

L'Alcazaba, una fortezza-palazzo moresca, sale sulla collina sopra il centro storico, con il castello di Gibralfaro ancora più in alto e viste sul porto e sulla baia. Ai suoi piedi si trovano il Teatro Romano e la cattedrale, soprannominata La Manquita, la signora monca, perché la sua seconda torre non fu mai completata.
