About Málaga

Málaga is een zonnige Andalusische havenstad aan de Costa del Sol, de geboortestad van Picasso, met een Moors fort, stadsstranden en veel musea.

De Alcazaba, een Moors fort-paleis, klimt tegen de heuvel boven de oude stad op, met het kasteel Gibralfaro nog hoger en uitzicht over de haven en de baai. Aan de voet liggen het Romeinse Theater en de kathedraal, bijgenaamd La Manquita, de eenarmige dame, omdat haar tweede toren nooit is afgebouwd.
